Reasoning Mind Academy: Measuring Temperature Example 1) Start Temperature: 48°F Increases by 51°F What is the new temperature? New Temperature: __________ Example 2) The temperature on a thermometer shows that is it 82°F. If the temperature decreased by 17°F, what is the new temperature on the thermometer? New Temperature: ________________
Reasoning Mind Academy: Measuring Temperature Example 3) Jada pre-heated her oven to make a pizza. She set the oven at 325°F. Then, she had to set the oven to a temperature that was 125°F greater to bake some cupcakes. At what temperature did Jada need to bake the cupcakes? Cupcake Oven Temperature:__________ Example 4) Start Temperature: 101°F Decreases by 27°F What is the new temperature? New Temperature: _________________
Reasoning Mind Academy: Measuring Temperature Example 5) Start Temperature: 32°F New Temperature: 89°F What was the change in temperature? Change in Temperature: ______________ Example 6) At 8:00 a.m. on Monday, the temperature was 66°F. The temperature increased by 2°F each hour until 1:00 p.m. What was the temperature at 1:00 p.m.? Temperature at 1:00 p.m.: ____________
