Answer: The temperature in Fahrenheit is 68°F.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Thermometer reading = 20°C

To convert this temperature into Fahrenheit, we use the conversion factor:

^oC=(^oF-32)* (5)/(9)

where,

^oF = temperature in Fahrenheit

^oC = temperature in degree Celsius

Converting the value, we get:

$20^oC=(^oF-32)* (5)/(9)\\\\^oF=68^oF$

Hence, the temperature in Fahrenheit is 68°F.
