B.-21°C

D.38.3°C

Answer 1

Answer:

The difference between the temperatures in the two countries is 38.3°C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Temperature in Greenland = - 8.3°C

Temperature in Jamaica = 30°C

To find :

The difference between the temperature in the two countries = ?

$\textrm{difference between the temperature in the two countries} =\textrm{temperature in Jamaica} - \textrm{temperature in Greenland}\\= 30 - (-8.3)\\= 30 +8.3\\= 38.3\°C$

Therefore,the difference between the temperatures in the two countries is 38.3°C
