Suppose the temperature -119° was recorded in Antarctica and a temperature of 112° was recorded in the Sahara desert how many degrees warmer is 112 than -119

To find out how many degrees warmer 112°F is compared to -119°F, we calculate the difference between these two temperatures by subtracting the lower temperature (-119°F) from the higher temperature (112°F):

\[
112 - (-119) = 112 + 119 = 231
\]

So, the temperature in the Sahara desert is **231 degrees warmer** than the temperature recorded in Antarctica.

Here are five related questions:
1. What is the average temperature difference between desert and polar regions?
2. How would this temperature difference change if we measured in Celsius instead of Fahrenheit?
3. How can extreme temperature differences affect ecosystems in both places?
4. What are the hottest and coldest temperatures ever recorded on Earth?
5. How can we convert temperatures between Fahrenheit and Celsius?

**Tip:** When subtracting a negative number, remember it becomes an addition!
