The suggested answers are for K=298 degrees and the nearest correct answer seems to be increase the room temperature by 22 degrees Fahrenheit. But by calculation, for 300 K, then convert 300k to degrees Celsius = 300-273.15=26.85 degrees celsius. Then convert the 26.85 to degrees F, so F=9/5C + 32 = 48.33+32=80.33-55F (present room temperature) = 25.33 degrees F to increase the room temperature by.
