Answer:
186^(\circ)F

Explanation:

Given : In the Sahara Desert one day it was 136°F.

In the Gobi Desert a temperature of -50°F was recorded.

Clearly , 136°F> -50°F

Then, the difference between these two temperatures will be :-


136^(\circ)F-(-50)^(\circ)F\\\\=(136+50)^(\circ)F\ \ [\because \text{Product two neagtive sign is positive]}\\\\=186^(\circ)F

Hence, the difference between these two temperatures =
186^(\circ)F
