Question

In Siberia, a record high temperature of 98 F has been reported. The record low temperature is 192 degrees lower than the record high temperature. What was the coldest Siberia temperature?

Answer 1

Lo: - 94o F

Explanation:

Hi: 98oF

Difference: 192 degrees lower

Low: ?

Formula

98 - 192 = -94

That seems incredibly cold. I've lived through a day that was - 60oF and that was enough. (about - 51o C)

If you think in Celcius

The formula is

C = 5/9(F - 32)

C = 5/9 (-94 - 32)

C = 5/9 (-126)

C = -60

I think Siberia must be much colder than -60.
