The difference is 8 degrees Celsius: -5° C is 8° lower than +3° C
+3 - (-5) = +3 + 5 = 8

Minus 17 degrees C = +1.4 degrees F 82 - 1.4 = 80.6 Fahrenheit degrees difference or 80.6 * 5/9 = 44.78 Celsius degrees difference Above answers are Number of Degrees Difference - not temperature.
The difference between -9 degrees Celsius and 3 degrees Celsius is 12 degrees. This is because the temperature scale is linear, meaning that each degree represents an equal interval. Therefore, subtracting -9 from 3 gives us 12. It's important to note that negative temperatures indicate temperatures below freezing, while positive temperatures are above freezing.
The subtraction gives you -170 degrees Celsius.
