# A cup of water was heated for eight minutes. The thermometers show the temperature readings during different times of heating.What can be the temperature when it is heated for three minutes?

29

##### SOLUTION
Given figures show that temperature is 26C at 2 min, and 32C at 4 min. Temperature at 3 min
$=\dfrac{26 + 32}{2} = \dfrac{58}{2} = 29^{0} C$
