What was the temperature at noon?

Question

The temperature at the Winter Olympics in Montreal was a frigid 14 below zero in the morning, but by noon it had risen 72 (thanks, Global Warming *sighs in spanish*). 

Answer 1

Assuming you are in Fahrenheit, you start the morning with 14F below zero which means that it is -14F. By noon, the temperature has risen 72F. Therefore, to find the temperature at noon, you add 72F to -14F:

72F + -14F = 58F

At noon, the temperature in Montreal was 58 degrees Fahrenheit.
