Poll
Melinda filled two glasses of equal-sized half-full water. The water in one glass was 50 degrees Celsius. The water in the other glass was 10 degrees Celsius. She poured one glass into the other, stirred the liquid together, and measured the temperature of the full glass of water. What do you think the temperature of the full glass of water will be after the water is mixed?
20 degrees celsius
30 degrees celsius
40 degrees celsius
50 degrees celsius
60 degrees celsius
