The total snowfall in Smithville after a three day snow storm was 39.1 inches.The accumulated snow after the second day of the storm was 24.6 inches, two-thirds of which fell on the first day of the storm.How many inches of snow fell on each day?

Respuesta :

first+ second + third = 39.1

first = 2/3 (24.6)
first = 16.4

second = 24.6-16.4
second = 8.2

16.4 + 8.2 + third = 39.1
24.6 + third = 39.1
24.6 -24.6 + third = 39.1-24.6
third = 14.5

First day= 16.4 in
Second day=8.2 in
Third day = 14.5 in
