Correct Answer: 25.6°C
Solution :
Total temperature for the first four days = 4 × 25°C = 100°C
Total temperature for the last four days = 4 × 25.5°C = 102°C
Total temperature for the week = 7 × 25.2°C = 176.4°C
Total temperature for the first and last four days = 100°C + 102°C = 202°C
⇒ Temperature on the fourth day = 202°C – 176.4°C = 25.6°C
Hence, the correct answer is 25.6°C.
