Confusing Question

[Col. Burton]

So, I've asked many people this question, all with not-so-well results.

If it is 0 degrees Fahrenheit today, and it is twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be tomorrow?

Have fun with this.

logically there is no answer

so N/A

"Cold" is a relative term, which depends on what you consider the most comfortable temperature. The answer will vary from person to person.

[Daswiruch]

~-29.2 Fahrenheit

it would be twice cold

[Legodude77]

Around -32 Fahrenheit

[The Resonte!]

(temperature) - [(cold) * 2]

[Clix]

~-29.2 Fahrenheit

Yeah this, 0 degrees Fahrenheit is about -17 degrees Celsius, so just multiply that by 2 (brings you to about 34 degrees Celsius), then convert it back to Fahrenheit (which brings you to around 29 degrees Fahrenheit).

[Trogtor]

nvm

[e-maxx]

it would be twice cold

this is the right answer

[JJJMan4]

Let's see you say 0 degrees Fahrenheit which equals to -17.7778 degrees Celsius. Times that by 2 to get -35.5556 degrees Celsius. Convert it into Fahrenheit to get -32.0001 degrees Fahrenheit.  That may or may not be correct.

Yeah this, 0 degrees Fahrenheit is about -17 degrees Celsius, so just multiply that by 2 (brings you to about 34 degrees Celsius), then convert it back to Fahrenheit( which brings you to around 29 degrees Fahrenheit).

this is exactly what i did

i did the same thing except i converted fahrenheit to kelvin and back so the answer must be 459.66ºF

Indeed. Unless you have an absolute standard for what is dictated as "cold", the question cannot be logically answered.
