A temperature scale has a lower fixed point of 40mm and a upper fixed point of 200mm. What is the reading on this scale when a thermometer reads 60^oC?

33.3mm

36.0mm

96.0mm

136.0mm

Correct answer is D

200mm ..... 100^oC

Xmm ..... 60^oC

400mm ..... 0^oC

\(\frac{x - 40}{200 - 40}\) = \(\frac{60 - 0}{100 - 0}\)

X = 136mm
