Q. In which story is the answer to the question 0?Choices:(A)When Liz climbed Mount Rainier, the windchill temperature was −4∘C. The actual temperature outside was 4∘C warmer than the windchill temperature. What was the actual temperature outside?(B)When Liz climbed Mount Rainier, the windchill temperature was −4∘C. The actual temperature outside was 4∘C. How much warmer was the actual temperature outside than the windchill temperature?
Solve for Actual Temperature: Step 1: Solve for the actual temperature outside in story (A). The windchill temperature is given as −4∘C, and it's stated that the actual temperature is 4∘C warmer than the windchill. Calculation: −4∘C+4∘C=0∘C.
Solve for Temperature Difference: Step 2: Solve for the difference in temperature in story (B). The windchill temperature is −4∘C, and the actual temperature outside is given as 4∘C. Calculation: 4∘C−(−4∘C)=8∘C.
Determine Correct Answer: Step 3: Determine which story's question results in an answer of 0. From Step 1, the actual temperature outside in story (A) is 0∘C. In story (B), the difference in temperature is 8∘C.
