To solve this worksheet, we need to look at each pair of thermometers and figure out which one shows a lower (colder) temperature. Then, we check the box under that thermometer.
Here is the step-by-step breakdown for each pair:
Row 1:
1.
First Pair (°C):
* Left thermometer: The red line is at
40.
* Right thermometer: The red line is at
30.
* Comparison: 30 is less than 40.
*
Result: Check the box under the
Right thermometer.
2.
Second Pair (°F):
* Left thermometer: The red line is at
-10.
* Right thermometer: The red line is at
-20.
* Comparison: -20 is colder than -10 (it is further down below zero).
*
Result: Check the box under the
Right thermometer.
3.
Third Pair (°C):
* Left thermometer: The red line is at
80.
* Right thermometer: The red line is at
20.
* Comparison: 20 is less than 80.
*
Result: Check the box under the
Right thermometer.
Row 2:
4.
Fourth Pair (°F):
* Left thermometer: The red line is at
10.
* Right thermometer: The red line is at
30.
* Comparison: 10 is less than 30.
*
Result: Check the box under the
Left thermometer.
5.
Fifth Pair (°C):
* Left thermometer: The red line is at
60.
* Right thermometer: The red line is at
20.
* Comparison: 20 is less than 60.
*
Result: Check the box under the
Right thermometer.
6.
Sixth Pair (°F):
* Left thermometer: The red line is at
-10.
* Right thermometer: The red line is at
-30.
* Comparison: -30 is colder than -10.
*
Result: Check the box under the
Right thermometer.
Final Answer:
- Pair 1: Check the
Right box
- Pair 2: Check the
Right box
- Pair 3: Check the
Right box
- Pair 4: Check the
Left box
- Pair 5: Check the
Right box
- Pair 6: Check the
Right box
