Question

${26}^{\circ }C$ above $0^{\circ }C$ temperature and
${13}^{\circ }C$ below $0^{\circ }C$ temperature
can be represented as-

• A. -26^oC and +13^oC
• B. +26^oC and -13^oC
• C. -26^oC and -13^oC
• D. +26^oC and +13^oC

Answer 1

The correct option is B

+26^oC and -13^oC

Temperature above $0^{\circ }C$ is taken as positive
Temperature below $0^{\circ }C$ is taken as negative
Hence, the given situation can be represented as
$+{26}^{\circ }C$ and $-{13}^{\circ }C$
