Answer:

The temperature on the thermometer is 26°C

Explanation:

The image is very clear.

To answer this question you need to know the scale of the thermometer.

As between 20 and 30 there are 5 "spaces" (four lines) , we should divide

10 (the difference between 30 and 20) by 5.

10/5= 2

So each line means 2 °C

As there are 3 lines painted in red after 20, the answer is:

20+3*2= 26°C
