Answer:

46 %

or

LITERAL/EXACT ANSWER:

45.1 % celsius

9.8% fahrenheit

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract your wet bulb number from your dry bulb (when using a rh table :) ), and then slide down the table using your dry bulb number to determine the rh.

or, if you'd like to be technical:

The relative humidity is 45.1% representing an actual mixing ratio of 9.5g/Kg. Calculating the Dew Point temperature as 13.2ºC

The relative humidity is 9.8% representing an actual mixing ratio of 0.3g/Kg. Calculating the Dew Point temperature as -23.4ºF

I'm fairly certain this right...hope it helps!
