1) The temperature went down 3 degree Celsius and then down 3 degrees Celsius, ending up at a final temperature of -19 degrees Celsius. What was the starting temperature - Answer: 13 degrees Celsius SOLUTION 1 : Solve: Work backwards. Add: -19°C + 3°C + 3°C = -13°C So, the starting temperature was -13 degrees Celsius. |
2) Chennai recorded a temperature of Forty Two degrees Celsius, and Kovai recorded a temperature of Twenty Nine degrees Celsius. Who recorded a cooler temperature
Answer: 1 SOLUTION 1 : Solve: Twenty Nine Celsius is cooler than Forty Two degrees Celsius. So, Kovai recorded a cooler temperature. |
3) The temperature in ooty was 19°C on Monday, 14°C on Tuesday, and 9°C on Wednesday. Which list shows the days from coolest to warmest
Answer: 2 SOLUTION 1 : Slove: 9 is the smallest of the three numbers, so 9°C is the coolest. 19 is the largest number, so 19°C is the warmest. Since 9°C is the coolest and 19°C is the warmest, 14°C must be in between. So, the list from coolest to warmest is Wednesday, Tuesday, Monday. |
4) Madurai recorded a temperature of Thirty Nine degrees Celsius, and Selam recorded a temperature of Thirty One degrees Celsius. Who recorded a warmer temperature
Answer: 1 SOLUTION 1 : Solve: 39°C is warmer than 31°C. So, Madurai recorded a warmer temperature. |
5) At 3:00 AM, the temperature is 14°C. If the temperature drops 2°C per hour, what will the temperature be at 12:00 AM Answer: -4 °C SOLUTION 1 : Solve: The temperature drops 2°C for 9 hours, so multiply 9 times: 2 x 9 = 18 Subtract the starting temperature 14 - 18 = -4 So, the temperature will be -4°C. |
6) The temperature went down 1 degree Celsius and then down 6 degrees Celsius, ending up at a final temperature of -18 degrees Celsius. What was the starting temperature - Answer: 11 degrees Celsius SOLUTION 1 : Solve: Work backwards. Add: -18°C + 1°C + 6°C = -11°C So, the starting temperature was -11 degrees Celsius. |
7) Chennai recorded a temperature of Thirty Five degrees Celsius, and Kovai recorded a temperature of Twenty Nine degrees Celsius. Who recorded a cooler temperature
Answer: 2 SOLUTION 1 : Solve: Twenty Nine Celsius is cooler than Thirty Five degrees Celsius. So, Kovai recorded a cooler temperature. |
8) The temperature in ooty was 16°C on Monday, 11°C on Tuesday, and 5°C on Wednesday. Which list shows the days from coolest to warmest
Answer: 4 SOLUTION 1 : Slove: 5 is the smallest of the three numbers, so 5°C is the coolest. 16 is the largest number, so 16°C is the warmest. Since 5°C is the coolest and 16°C is the warmest, 11°C must be in between. So, the list from coolest to warmest is Wednesday, Tuesday, Monday. |
9) Madurai recorded a temperature of Forty Four degrees Celsius, and Selam recorded a temperature of Thirty Four degrees Celsius. Who recorded a warmer temperature
Answer: 1 SOLUTION 1 : Solve: 44°C is warmer than 34°C. So, Madurai recorded a warmer temperature. |
10) At 2:00 AM, the temperature is 14°C. If the temperature drops 2°C per hour, what will the temperature be at 9:00 AM Answer: 0 °C SOLUTION 1 : Solve: The temperature drops 2°C for 7 hours, so multiply 7 times: 2 x 7 = 14 Subtract the starting temperature 14 - 14 = 0 So, the temperature will be 0°C. |
