Question

Amulya and Amar visited two places A and B respectively in Kashmir and recorded the minimum temperatures on a particular day as $-4^{\circ }$ C at A and $-1^{\circ }$ C at B. Which of the following statements is true?

• A. A is cooler than B
• B. B is cooler than A
• C. The temperature at A is $4^{\circ }$ C higher than that B
• D. There is a difference of $2^{\circ }$C in the temperature

Answer 1

The correct option is A A is cooler than B

The place which has lesser temperature will be cooler.

Given that

The minimum temperature on a particular day at A = $-4^{\circ }$C

and the minimum temperature on a particular day at B = $-1^{\circ }$C

We know that, $-4^{\circ }$C < $-1^{\circ }$C.

So, A is cooler than B.

Hence, option (a) is true.
