Used for LANTITE preparation (Australia). MG = Measurement & Geometry strand. NC = Non-Calculator strand. Students are shown an image of a thermometer calibrated in both degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit. Student must answer a question using the thermometer. The image is randomly selected from a pool of 3. There are two different potential questions for each thermometer. Hence 6 questions in total.

\nThe scale measured in degrees Celsius increases in increments of 1°C. In other words, the space between each graduation represents 1°C.
\nThe scale measured in degrees Fahrenheit increases in increments of 2°F. In other words, the space between each graduation represents 2°F.
\nMake sure you are taking the reading from the correct scale on the thermometer for each question.
