You have two numbers -- 8 C and -20 C.

Do you think you should
add?
subtract?
multiply?
divide?

Does your answer make sense?

Divide and no I need it to be shown step by step the process to find the answer to this question
Ms. Sue
Right. Division doesn't make sense -- so it must be wrong.

-20 + -8 = -28 C

Since the temperture went up to -20 degrees doesn't that mean you should subtract?
So, -20 minus -8 = -12?

The correct answer is -28°C.

Here is the step-by-step process to find the answer:

1. From midnight to 6:00 AM, the temperature rose 8°C, so we add 8°C to the temperature at midnight. Let's call the temperature at midnight "x". So we have:

x + 8

2. At 6:00 AM, the temperature was at -20°C. So we set up an equation:

x + 8 = -20

3. Now we solve for x by subtracting 8 from both sides:

x = -28

Therefore, the temperature at midnight was -28°C.
