Answer:

Tk=TC+273.15

so

1376.06=Tc+273.15

TC=1376.06-273.15

TC= =1,102.91

Answer: 1102.91 ºC

Explanation: To solve this problem, we only need to isolate the temperature in Celsius from the given equation:

TK=TºC+273.15

TºC=TK-273.15

now, replacing the temperature of the flame in K:

TºC=1376.06-273.15

TºC=1102.91 ºC
