The temperature drop is <u>B. 3.968 degrees</u> each hour.
<h3>What is the temperature drop calculated?</h3>
The temperature drop per hour can be computed by dividing the total temperature drop by the number of hours over which the temperature dropped.
<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>
The total steady drop in temperature = 24.8 degrees
Total number of hours for the temperature drop = 6¹/₄ hours
6¹/₄ hours = 6.25 hours
Temperature drop per hour = total drop/total hours of drop
= 2(4.8 ÷ 6¹/₄ hours)
= 3.968 degrees
Thus, the temperature drop is <u>B. 3.968 degrees</u> each hour.
