Question

In 3 3/4hours one day in February, it snowed 3 feet in Amarillo. How much snow fell per hour?

Answer 1

0.8

Explanation:

Given:
`3 (3)/(4)` hours one day

To find: How much snow fell per hour?

Solution: To find how much it will snow in an hour, first convert
`3(3)/(4)` to a decimal

3.75. Now, divide 3 by 3.75

`(3)/(3.75) =`

`3` ÷
`3.75`

`= 0.8`

So, 0.8 snow will fall per hour
