It has just snowed heavily, Ali goes outside and notices that his garden has twice as much snow as his neighbor's, but Jeff is not surprised. Why?

Question

His yard is twice as big

Answer 1

Jeff is not surprised because Ali and Jeff are neighbors and their gardens are adjacent to each other. Since the gardens are close together and they share the same snowy weather conditions, Jeff's garden would also have twice as much snow as Ali's garden. Therefore, Jeff is not surprised by the difference in snow accumulation between the two gardens.

Answer 2

Jeff is not surprised because Ali's yard is twice as big, so it makes sense for it to have twice as much snow as the neighbor's yard. The amount of snow accumulation is directly proportional to the size of the area it covers.
