Answer 2

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Given temperature values;

   200°F ,  200°C    and      200K  

To solve this problem, convert all the given values to the same unit.

Let us choose kelvin as our standard here;

  °F → °C → K

  200°F;

       (°F − 32) × $\frac{5}{9}$ = °C

 Insert the parameters;

          (200 - 32) x $\frac{5}{9}$   = 93.3°C

So;

        °K  = 273 + °C  = 273 + 93.3  = 366.3K

For 200°C;

      °K  = 273 + °C  = 273 + 200 = 473K

The highest temperature is 200°C
