The lowes temperture ever recorded in the state of Oregon was -54F (in Seneca, on February 10,1933). The state's record high temperature occured in Pendletion on August 10, 1898, when it reached 119F. What is the historical temperature range in the state of Oregon?

The range was -54F to 119F.

That's a range of 173 degrees.

Thanks so much Ms. Sue

You're welcome, PJ.

To find the historical temperature range in the state of Oregon, we need to subtract the lowest recorded temperature from the highest recorded temperature. In this case, the lowest temperature recorded was -54°F, and the highest temperature recorded was 119°F.

Therefore, to find the historical temperature range, we subtract -54°F from 119°F:

119°F - (-54°F)

To simplify the calculation, we can convert the negative temperature to a positive value:

119°F + 54°F

Now we can add the temperatures:

119°F + 54°F = 173°F

So, the historical temperature range in the state of Oregon is 173°F.
