Solution

First, we need to convert the temperatures from Fahrenheit to Kelvin. The formula to convert Fahrenheit to Kelvin is K = (F - 32) * 5/9 + 273.15.

Let's convert the room temperature first: K = (72 - 32) * 5/9 + 273.15 = 295.372 K

Now, let's convert the outside temperature: K = (20 - 32) * 5/9 + 273.15 = 266.483 K

Now, subtract the outside temperature from the room temperature to find the difference: 295.372 K - 266.483 K = 28.889 K

So, the temperature difference is approximately 29K.
