Answer: Altoona.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that in that day it snowed  [tex]3\ \frac{3}{8}\ inches[/tex] in Altoona.

Given this measurement as a mixed number, you need to convert it to a decimal number. Then:

[tex]3\ \frac{3}{8}\ inches=(3+ \frac{3}{8})\ inches=(3+0.375)\ inches=3.375\ inches[/tex]

It that day it snowed  [tex]3.45\ inches[/tex] in Bethlehem.

Then, you can notice that:

[tex]3.375\ inches<3.45\ inches[/tex]

Therefore, you can conclude that the city that received less snow that day was: Altoona.
