Question

The temperature in Canada is-27°c, in London, it is - 18°c. which place is colder ?why?








please help me​

Answer 1

Temperature of Canada = - 27°C

Temperature of London = - 18°C

Canada is colder than London as -27 is less than -18 and when we find colder places, we go for less temperature.

As in negative number system, larger nagative value is less than smaller negative values.

For Example :- Between - 7 and -12 , - 12 is less than -7 because negative of 12 is greater than negative of 7.

Similarly, - 27 is lesser than - 18 , that's why Canada is colder that London.

Answer 2

Check the absolute value of the integers

[-27]=27
