Detailed Solution

Let's find the combined temperature of Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday:
37×3=111°C
Accordingly the combined temperature of Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday:
34×3=102°C
The difference between the temperature between Monday and Thursday will be:
(temperature of Monday) – (temperature of Thursday) = 111 – 102
                                                                                         = 9 ……………………………. (1)
According to the given question,
45 Monday (temperature) = Thursday (temperature) …………………………..(2)
Let's substitute the value in equation (1) we get:
⇒ Monday (temperature) - 45 Monday (temperature) = 9
Monday (temperature) 5 = 9
⇒ Monday (temperature) = 45
Let's put the value Monday in the equation …. (2)
45×45 = Thursday (temperature)
 4×9 =  Thursday (temperature)
⇒ Thursday (temperature) = 36°C
