It depends upon the scale (units) being used:
Water is its densest at about 4oC ≈ 39oF which is why ice at 0oC (32oF) floats.
- 23 degrees
Still 54 degrees if the 18 degree drop is inside!
If the starting temperature is 86 degrees Fahrenheit, and it drops by 40 degrees, the temperature is 46 Fahrenheit. It's simple subtraction.
24 degrees 12pm
When the sun goes down, the temperature drops.
You will recall from the Ideal Gas Laws that temperature, pressure, and volume are all connected in terms of the behavior of a gas (especially an ideal gas, but actual gas resembles ideal gas to a certain extent). So, if the gas is in a container of fixed volume, then reducing the temperature will correspondingly reduce the pressure.
When the temperature of an object decreases, its volume tends to decrease as well. This is because as the temperature drops, the particles in the object move slower and closer together, causing the object to contract and reduce in volume.

If heat is transferred away from a gas, its temperature will decrease, causing the gas to contract or decrease in volume. This could lead to a decrease in pressure as well, possibly causing condensation or a phase change if the temperature drops low enough.
The temperature dropped by 11 degrees Celsius.
Still 54 degrees if the 18 degree drop is inside!
The change in temperature is 49 degrees, calculated by subtracting the final temperature (-4 degrees) from the initial temperature (45 degrees).
Pipes can freeze when the temperature drops below 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius).
As elevation rises, temperature generally decreases due to the decrease in air pressure and the thinner atmosphere. This phenomenon is known as the lapse rate, where for every 100 meters increase in elevation, the temperature may decrease by about 0.6 degrees Celsius.
Pipes can freeze when the temperature drops below 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius).
The volume of air inside the balloon will decrease as the temperature drops in the refrigerator, causing the balloon to slightly shrink. When the balloon is taken out of the refrigerator and warms up, the air inside will expand again and the balloon will return to its original size.
