Death Valley, CA - How hot was it?


 

This picture may have been Photoshopped and not be a true representation.


 We blacked out the Fahrenheit reading of this temperature sign at the Death Valley Visitor Center.

  • Take a guess at what the Fahrenheit reading on this sign must have been.
  • How did you make that guess?
  • Use the Fahrenheit conversion formula to calculate the missing number.     (C° * 1.8) + 32 = F°


Extra practice:  Use the conversion formula to calculate these important temperatures.
