Solution

Given data,
triple point of water on scale $A = 200 A$
triple point of water on scale $B = 350 B$
we know, that triple point of water on two scales $A$ and $B$ , then
$\frac{273.16}{200} T_{A} = \frac{273.16}{350} T_{B}$
$\frac{T_{A}}{T_{B}} = \frac{200}{350}$
$= \frac{20}{35}$
$= \frac{4}{7}$

$T_{A} = \frac{4 T_{B}}{7}$
