Isabelle recorded the snowfall every day during a snowstorm. She recorded \( 1 / 2 \) of a centimeter on Wednesday, \( 1 / 2 \) of a centimeter on Thursday, and \( 1 / 4 \) of a centimeter on Friday. How many total centimeters of snow did Isabelle record? centimeters

To find the total centimeters of snow Isabelle recorded over the three days, you can add the amounts for each day: - **Wednesday:** \( \frac{1}{2} \) cm - **Thursday:** \( \frac{1}{2} \) cm - **Friday:** \( \frac{1}{4} \) cm **Step-by-Step Calculation:** 1. **Add Wednesday and Thursday:** \[ \frac{1}{2} \, \text{cm} + \frac{1}{2} \, \text{cm} = 1 \, \text{cm} \] 2. **Add Friday's snowfall:** \[ 1 \, \text{cm} + \frac{1}{4} \, \text{cm} = 1 \frac{1}{4} \, \text{cm} \] Alternatively, in decimal form: \[ 1 + 0.25 = 1.25 \, \text{cm} \] **Total Snowfall:** \[ 1 \frac{1}{4} \, \text{centimeters} \quad \text{or} \quad 1.25 \, \text{centimeters} \]
