The temperature in a city changed by −24 degrees over an 8-hour period.

Question

Divide -24÷8
to determine how much the temperature changed each hour.

Answer 1

To determine how much the temperature changed each hour, you can divide the total change in temperature by the number of hours.

So, you would calculate:

\[ -24 \div 8 = -3 \]

This means the temperature changed by -3 degrees each hour.
