To find the total inches of snowfall in the next 24 hours, we can calculate the rate of snowfall per hour and then multiply it by 24.
In the past 4 hours, there have been 7 inches of snowfall. So, the rate of snowfall per hour is 7 inches / 4 hours = 1.75 inches/hour.
To find the total snowfall in the next 24 hours, we multiply the rate of snowfall per hour by the total number of hours: 1.75 inches/hour * 24 hours = 42 inches.
Therefore, if the pace continues, the total inches of snowfall over the next 24 hours will be 42 inches.
Over the past 4 hours, 7 inches of snow has fallen. How many total inches will fall over the next 24 hours if the pace continues? (1 point)
