A 85cm snowman melts and loses 3cm in height for every hour the sun shine and the sun shine only 6.5 hours a day. How many days will it take for the snowman to melt

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial height of the snowman is 85 cm. snowman melts and loses 3cm in height for every hour the sun shine and the sun shine only 6.5 hours a day. This means that the height that the snowman loses in a day would be

3 * 6.5 = 19.5 cm

Therefore, in a day, the snowman loses 19.5 cm in height. Therefore,

the number of days that it will take the snowman to melt would be

85/19.5 = 4.36 days
