Question

At 6:00 the outside air temperature was 15°F. By 8:00 the temperature had dropped 9°F, and by 11:00 I had dropped another 12°. What was the temperature at 11:00?

Answer 1

- 6°F

Explanation:

Given :

Temperature at 6:00 = 15°F

Temperature dropped by 9°F by 8:00

Temperature by 8:00 = 15°F - 9°F = 6°F

Temperature dropped another 12°F by 11:00

Hence, Temperature at 11:00 will be :

6°F - 12°F = - 6°F

Temperature at 11:00 = - 6°F
