conversations.value: Break down this math problem: Boston had .5 feet of snow on the first day of winter.  The next day they got an additional 8 inches.  Over the next 2 days, 2 inches of the snow melted.  On the fifth day, they received another 2 times the amount of snow they received on the first day.  How many feet of snow do they now have?

conversations.value: 12 inches is 1 foot and they received a .5 foot of snow on the first day so they received 12*.5 = 6 inches of snow
  The first day they had 6 inches and then received another 8 inches for a total of 6+8 = 14 inches
  2 inches melted from their 14 inches so that leaves 14-2 = 12 inches of snow
  They received 2 times the amount as the first day's 6 inches of snow so that's 2*6 = 12 inches of snow
  So they had 12 inches of snow and received another 12 inches of snow for a total of 12+12 = 24 inches
  12 inches is 1 foot and they have 24 inches of snow so they have 24/12 = 2 feet of snow
