Answer:
6.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose we get 24 inches of snow tomorrow
The next day becomes warm.
The weather remains warm for the next several days.
The snow melts at 2.5 inches a day
Therefore the amount of snow that will be left after 7 days can be calculated as follows
= 2.5 ×7
= 17.5
Since the initial amount of snow was 24 inches then,
24 -17.5
= 6.5
Hence the amount of snow that will be left on the ground after 7 days is 6.5 inches
