Question

The temperature at 6:30am was - 12°F 2 hours later it was 10 lower. What was the new temperature?

Answer 1

We are told that starting with an initial temperature of 12°F, the temperature after 2 hours was 10 lower. This means the new temperature will be 12°F minus 10 :

`\begin{gathered} n\text{ew temperture = }12\degree F-10 \\ \therefore\text{new temperature = 2}\degree F \end{gathered}`
