The average snowfall 2 to 5. If 44 inches fell in January find the predicted total snowfall for the winter

What do you mean by "The average snowfall 2 to 5"?

How much snow usually falls in other months?

A meteorologist reports that the ratio of snowfall in January to total snowfall during the average winter is 2 to 5. If 44 inches have fallen January to the current year,find the predicted total snowfall for the entire winter.

Ahh -- now that makes sense.

2/5 = 44/x

Cross multiply and solve for x.

17.6

No.

2/5 = 44/x

220 = 2x

110 is that inches

Yes, the total snow fall for the winter is predicted to be about 110 inches.
