Answer:

D).
327 ^0 C

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that temperature scale is linear so we will have


(^0C - 0)/(100 - 0) = (K - 273)/(373 - 273)

now we have


(^0 C - 0)/(100) = (K - 273)/(100)

so the relation between two scales is given as


^0 C = K - 273

now we know that in kelvin scale the absolute temperature is 600 K

so now we have


T = 600 - 273 = 327 ^0 C

so correct answer is

D).
327 ^0 C
