Answer:

40⁰ C

Explanation:

As long as the number is higher than 38⁰ C, it is a valid answer. as long as its not anything crazy like 111846284⁰ C. But anything around 40⁰ C would be a valid answer as long as the temperature is higher. mass doesn't matter. They are trying to trick you with the question lol
