I think the answer to this question if wrong.To go from centrigrade to fahreneit the correct Formula is this:F=9/5*C+32.So if we place the given centigrade into the formula we have 9/5*1+32 =33,8 so it should've been 33 and not 1.8.I reported this question to be fixed.

The answer is correct Jordi. If you read the question correctly you will notice that you have to know the difference in a degree rise, and not how much one degree of celsius to fahrenheit is. So if you substract 1 celsius in fahreinhet from 2 celsius in fahrenheit you get 1.8. I hope this makes everything clear.
