When she built the snowman, the diameter of the larger snowball was 3 times the diameter of the smaller snowball. Today, the day after she built the snowman, there is a 50% chance of rain. If it rains today, then there is a 60% chance that the snowman will melt. If it does not rain today, then there is a 10% chance the snowman will melt.
