Asnowstorm produced 5 inches of snow every three hours. how long would it take to produce for feet of snow?

It will take 7.2 hours to produce a feet of snow.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the time taken it will take to produce feet of snow, we will follow the steps below;

First we will change the feet to inches

I feet = 12 inches

Using proportion;

Lat the time taken to produce a feet of snow be x

5 inches = 3 hours

12 inches  = x

Cross-multiply

5×x = 12× 3

5x = 36 hours

Divide both-side of the equation by 5

 =

(At the left-hand side of the equation 5 will cancel-out 5 leaving us with just x while at the right-hand side of the equation 36 will be divided by 5)

x = 7. 2 hours.

Therefore, it will take 7.2 hours to produce a feet of snow.
