Question

Which inequality best represents that ice cream at −5°C is cooler than ice cream at 4°C?

Answer 1

The answer for this question would be 4°C > −5°C

Answer 2

-5°C < 4°C

An object that is cooler, or colder, than a second object means that the first object has a lower, or lesser, temperature than the second object. So, we write the inequality that states that -5°C is less than 4°C.
