Question

bills normal temperature is 98.6 today ballistic and has a temperature of 104.3 how many degrees above his normal temperature is this

Answer 1

Answer:

Today's temperature is 5.7 degrees above Bill's normal temperature.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the normal temperature with N and today's temperature with T.

Such that:

$N = 98.6$

$T = 104.3$

Required

Determine the temperature above the normal temperature

The interpretation of this is to calculate the difference between Bill's normal temperature and Bill's today temperature.

Represent the difference with D

D is calculated as follows:

$D = T - N$

Substitute values for T and N

$D = 104.3 - 98.6$

$D = 5.7$

Hence, today's temperature is 5.7 degrees above Bill's normal temperature.
