======================================================

The question:

If the tempereature was 32°C at 1:00 PM, and it dropped 3.2°C between 1:00-5:00 PM, then what will the temperature be at 5:00 PM?

The solution:

The first step is to find the temperature between the times of 1:00 and 5:00 PM.

The temperature dropped 3.2°C at that same time. The temperature at 1:00 PM was 32°C. The tempeature between 1 and 5 PM is 32°C - 3.2°C, which is 28.8°C.

Now the drop would most probably also be 3.2°C, and the temperature at 5:00 PM will most probably be the temeprature earlier (28.8°C) minus 3.2°C, which is 25.6°C.

The answer:

The temperature at 5 PM will be 25.6°C.
