Based on the given information, we can determine that the rate of snowfall is 7 inches per 4 hours.
To find the total inches that will fall in the next 24 hours, we can set up a proportion:
7 inches / 4 hours = x inches / 24 hours
Cross multiplying:
4(hours) * x(inches) = 7(inches) * 24(hours)
4x = 168
x = 42
Therefore, if the pace continues, a total of 42 inches of snow will fall over the next 24 hours.
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?
