The boiling & freezing points on a newly defined temperature scale in degree 'D' are 400°D & 100°D respectively. The temperature reading corresponding to 60°C on this new temperature scale will be equal to _____________ °D ?

Correct answer: D. 280

  • A. 140
  • B. 180
  • C. 240
  • D. 280

Explanation

Assuming a linear scale, 0°C corresponds to 100°D and 100°C to 400°D, giving a slope of 3°D per °C. Thus, 60°C corresponds to 100 + 3(60) = 280°D.
