If the temperature dropped by 36 degrees over 6 hours, how much did the temperature change per hour?

1 answer

To find the temperature change per hour, you need to divide the total temperature change by the number of hours.

Temperature change per hour = Total temperature change / Number of hours

Total temperature change = 36 degrees
Number of hours = 6 hours

Temperature change per hour = 36 degrees / 6 hours = <<36/6=6>>6 degrees

Therefore, the temperature changed by 6 degrees per hour.
