Question

During the big storm, 29 in. of snow fell in 8 hours. Find the rate of snowfall in inches per hour.

Answer 1

3 5/8 inches of snow per hour

Explanation:

29 divided by 8 = 3.625

(3 5/8)

if 29 inches for 8 hours, and you need to find how much snow in one hour, you can get 1 hour from 8 hours by doing 8 divided by 8. You use the same number to find the snow, divide 29 by 8 and you get the rate at which snow builds up.

Hope this wasn’t too confusing ^0^
