Question

one winter day,the temperature ranged from a high 20°F to a low -25°F. By how many degrees did the temperature drop?

Answer 1

Answer:

$45^{\circ}F$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that one winter day,the temperature ranged from a high 20°F to a low -25°F.

To find the degrees by which temperature dropped, we will find difference between the final temperature and initial temperature.

$-25^{\circ}F-20^{\circ}F=-45^{\circ}F$

Since our difference is negative, therefore, the temperature dropped 45 degrees Fahrenheit.

Answer 2

45 degrees. 20 - (-25)
