It snowed 5.5 inches on sunday morning, and an additional 1 3/4 inches on monday. on tuesday, 3 1/8 melted during the afternoon. how much snow was there tuesday evening?

  4 1/8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

You apparently want to find the sum (in inches) ...

  5.5 + (1 3/4) - (3 1/8)

This can be done a number of ways. One is to use an appropriate calculator.

__

Another way to do this is to add the integer parts and fraction parts separately:

  = (5 +1 -3) +(1/2 +3/4 -1/8)

  = 3 + (4/8 +6/8 -1/8) = 3 + (4+6-1)/8 = 3 9/8

  = 4 1/8

__

Another way is to convert all the numbers to decimal, then add.

  = 5.500 +1.750 -3.125

  = 7.250 -3.125

  = 4.125 = 4 1/8

__

There were 4 1/8 inches of snow remaining Tuesday evening.

i belive those are the ones that are under 90 degreese.
