Answer:

-172.6 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the Celsius equivalent of the temperature 100.6 K.

Conversion

The relation is ...

C = K - 273.15

C = 100.6 -273.15 = -172.55

The temperature is -172.55 °C, about -172.6 °C.

Additional comment

We have rounded to tenths, because that is precision of the temperature given. If you use 273 as the conversion constant, you will get -172.4.
