    Today's low temperature = - 12.5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    Yesterday low temperature = - 2.5

    To Find:

    Today's low temperature = ?

    Solution:

    Let x be today's low temperature

    Now according to the given condition

    Today's low temperature is i. e. x is 5 times as low as yesterdays

    so from this we conduct that

    x = 5 time yesterday low temperature

    so

    x = 5 * Yesterday low temperature

    as we are given that yesterday low temperature = - 2.5

    so

    x = 5 * (-2.5)

    Multiplying it gives us

    x = - 12.5

    So

    Today's low temperature = - 12.5

    Explination: ok so to do this you will need to multiply so

    -2.5 • 5

    whats 2.5 • 5 it equals 12.5

    and because the original number "-2.5" has a negative symbol you just go ahead and put that in there with it.

    so your answer is - 12.5
