Bell work • Justin is making snowballs to build a fort on the Christmas holiday. Justin can build 15 snowballs in an hour but 2 snowballs melt every 15 minutes. How long will it take him to build 210 snowballs?( Close read) • You can answer it two ways: 1) 15 built in one hour= 210/15=14 hours. Or 2) you think it means not counting the snowballs that melt • = 15-8=7 good snowballs per hour/210=30hours.
