One of the highest snowfall rates ever recorded was in Silver Lake, Colorado, in April 1921, when just over 7 feet of snow fell in 27 1/2 hours. What was the rate in inches per hour?

Respuesta :

First, we can convert feet to inches 1 foot=12 inches 7 feet=84 inches Next, we find out inches per hour 84 inches/27 1/2 hours ----------- -------------- 27 1/2 27 1/2 =3.054 inches/hour
