On celcius scale the temperature of body increases by $40^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. The increase in temperature on Fahrenheit scale is :
  1. $68^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$
  2. $75^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$
  3. $72^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$
  4. $70^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$

Solution

We know that per ${ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ change is equivalent to $1.8^{\circ}$ change in ${ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$. $\therefore 40^{\circ}$ change on celcius scale will corresponds to $72^{\circ}$ change on Fahrenheit scale. Hence option (3)
