sammy froze three sets 50 ml of water. then she set one on the counter at room temperature, one in the refrigerator, and one in the sun on a hot day.
she timed how long it took each one to melt completely. she did this three times and made the table below to show her data.

how long does it take ice to melt?
trial 1	52 min	88 min	46 min
trial 2	56 min	85 min	47 min
trial 3	53 min	84 min	44 min

look at the table. where was the ice that melted the fastest for every trial?

• in the sunlight
• on the counter
• in the fridge

Explanation:

To determine where the ice melted the fastest, we compare the melting times for each location across all trials. For the counter, the times are 52, 56, 53 minutes. For the fridge, they are 88, 85, 84 minutes. For the sun, they are 46, 47, 44 minutes. The sun's times are the lowest in each trial, meaning the ice melted fastest there.

Answer:

In the sunlight
