Question

At 5:00 a.m., the temperature outside was 1°F below zero. By noon, it rose by 12°F. At 7:00 p.m., the temperature dropped by 6°F. What was the evening temperature?

Answer 1

5 Fahrenheit

Explanation:

In the morning, it was 1 below zero. Subtract.

0 - 1 = -1.

Then, it went up 12 degrees.

-1 + 12 = -11.

In the evening, it went down -6.

11 - 6 = 5.

The answer is 5.
