Answer
(a) 100 divisions on the Celsius scale = 180 divisions on Fahrenheit scale
1 division on Celsius scale = = 1.8 divisions on Fahrenheit scale
So the corresponding rise on the Fahrenheit scale = 1.8°F.
(b) 100 divisions on the Celsius scale = 100 divisions on Kelvin scale
1 division on Celsius scale = = 1 division on Kelvin scale
So the corresponding rise on the Kelvin scale = 1 K.
