In the high mountainn plains of Colorado, the temperature can change dramatically during a day, depending upon the Sun and season. On a June day, the low temperature was 14 degrees. If the high temperature that day was 83 degrees, by how much had the temperature risen?

Answer:

The temperature has risen by 69 degrees that day

Explanation:

Here, we want to know by how much the temperature has risen on that given day

Mathematically, that can be calculated by subtracting the value of the low temperature from the high temperature

= 83 - 14 = 69 degrees
