Solution

To find out how much warmer was the temperature that Jack recorded, you need to subtract Haley's temperature from Jack's temperature.

Here are the steps:

  1. Write down both temperatures: Jack's temperature is 33°C and Haley's temperature is -27°C.
  2. Subtract Haley's temperature from Jack's temperature: 33°C - (-27°C).

Remember that subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number. So, 33°C - (-27°C) is the same as 33°C + 27°C.

  1. Add the two temperatures: 33°C + 27°C = 60°C.

So, the temperature that Jack recorded was 60°C warmer than the temperature that Haley recorded.
