no, -56 is 56 below zero, not -56 below.
To determine how many degrees below zero the temperature is, we need to calculate the difference between the temperature and zero.
The given temperature is -56°F. Zero degrees is at 0°F.
To find the difference, we subtract zero from the given temperature:
-56°F - 0°F = -56°F.
Therefore, the temperature is 56°F below zero.
The answer is 56°F.
To determine how many degrees below zero the temperature is, we need to subtract zero from the given temperature. In this case, the given temperature is -56°F.
To find how many degrees below zero this is, we subtract 0°F from -56°F: -56°F - 0°F = -56°F.
Therefore, the temperature is already -56°F below zero.
So, the answer is -56°F.
