To find out how much higher the 6 am temperature in Los Angeles (63°F) was than in Chicago (-15°F), we can subtract the temperature in Chicago from the temperature in Los Angeles:
63°F (Los Angeles) - (-15°F (Chicago)) = 63°F + 15°F = 78°F
So, the 6 am temperature in Los Angeles was 78°F higher than in Chicago.
Next, to find the temperature in Chicago at noon after it rose by 21°F, we add 21°F to the 6 am temperature in Chicago:
-15°F + 21°F = 6°F
Therefore, the temperature in Chicago at noon was 6°F.
63°F (Los Angeles) - (-15°F (Chicago)) = 63°F + 15°F = 78°F
So, the 6 am temperature in Los Angeles was 78°F higher than in Chicago.
Next, to find the temperature in Chicago at noon after it rose by 21°F, we add 21°F to the 6 am temperature in Chicago:
-15°F + 21°F = 6°F
Therefore, the temperature in Chicago at noon was 6°F.
