Question 5 (d)
Following is the list of temperatures of five places in India, on a particular day of the year.
Place Temperature
Siachin 10∘C below 0∘C ___
Shimla 2∘C below 0∘ ___
Ahmedabad 30∘C above 0∘ ___
Delhi 20∘C above 0∘ ___
Srinagar 5∘C below 0∘ ___
Write the names of the place where temperature is above 10∘C
In the question above we are given a list of cities and their temperature on a particular day.
First, we will convert the temperatures into integers. We will take 0∘ as the reference, any temperature above that will be positive and any temperature below that will be negative.
Place Temperature
Siachin 10∘C below 0∘C = −10∘C
Shimla 2∘C below 0∘ = −2∘C
Ahmedabad 30∘C above 0∘ = 30∘C
Delhi 20∘C above 0∘ = 20∘C
Srinagar 5∘C below 0∘ = −5∘C
As we can see from the above table that 30∘C , 20∘C are above 10∘C.
Ahmedabad with 30∘C and Delhi with 20∘C have a temperature above 10∘C.
