Negative 21 deg C, for example.
The Celsius scale is an interval scale which means that the difference between 0 deg C and 10 deg C is the same as the difference between 10 deg C and 20 deg C. However, the zero of this scale is arbitrary which means that 20 deg C is not twice as hot as 10 deg C..The zero point of the Kelvin scale is not arbitrary: it is the point at which thermodynamic energy is zero and so the scale more versatile than an interval scale: it is a ratio scale and this means that 20 K is twice as hot as 10 K.
20 C is colder.

-20 degrees Fahrenheit converts to -28.9 degrees Celsius.
-20 degrees celsius is -4 degrees fahrenheit.
There are many examples. On common one is temperatures below zero. If it is -20 degrees outside then we know it is 20 below zero and -20 is a negative number.
At 20 degrees Celsius krypton is a gas. You would have to bring the temperature way down to just below -153.22 (yes, negative!) degrees Celsius for krypton to become a liquid, and just below -157.36 degrees Celsius to make it a solid!
-20 deg F = -28.88... deg C
Water is a solid at -20 degrees Celsius
30 C is a lot warmer; 30F is just below freezing! You can relate Celsius temperatures with this rhyme; 30 is hot and 20 is nice. 10 is cool, and Zero is ice!
-20ºC = -4.0ºF
Water freezes and becomes ice at zero degrees Celsius. Also, water has the odd quality that it begins to expand below about 4 degrees Celsius. So the answer is that it would turn into ice and its volume would increase a little.
20 b/c its distance to zero is 20
minus 3 degrees means that it's three degrees below freezing. So if you are measuring in celsius then it would be -3 degrees since freezing is zero degrees celsius. If you are measuring in Fahrenheit then it would be 29 degrees since 32 degrees is freezing.
The answer can be negative, zero, or positive. For example: -15 + 20 + (-10) = -5 -15 + 20 + (-5) = 0 -15 + 20 + (-2) = 3
