Thank you Ms. Sue! :D
You're welcome.
37+4=41
To find how many degrees the temperature fell, you need to calculate the difference between the two temperatures.
First, subtract the initial temperature from the final temperature:
-4 degrees - 37 degrees = -41 degrees
The difference between 37 degrees and -4 degrees is 41 degrees. Therefore, the temperature fell by 41 degrees.
