Answer:

OPTION A, Kelvin Thermometer is Incorrect

Explanation:

Now, if you consider best two out of three results, then celsius and Fahrenheit thermometers read the same value, meaning both are right.

1) K = °C + 273

K = 100°C + 273

k = 373°C

Kelvin Thermometer is Incorrect

2) [tex]C = \frac{F - 32}{1.8}[/tex]

when we have 212°F

[tex]C = \frac{212 - 32}{1.8} \\\\= 100^\circ C[/tex]

which is correct
