The temperature on a distant, undiscovered planet is expressed in degrees B. For example, water boils at 180 ∘ B and freezes at 50 ∘ B . If it is 31 ∘ C on Earth, what would that temperature be in terms of degrees B?

40.3∘C

Explanation:

At planet B;

Water boils = 180∘C

Water freezes = 50∘C

In this planet the temperature difference = 180 - 50 = 130 compared to earth where the temperature difference is; 100 - 0 = 100

This means;

130 ∘C = 100 ∘C

x ∘C = 31 ∘C

x = 31 * 130 / 100

x = 40.3∘C
