    33.5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    let original temperature be T

    If after 1 hr temperature drops by 11, then the rate of temperature drop is 11 per hr.

    After 4 hours, temperature will drop to 4 (T-11).

    if temperature after 4 hrs is 90, then

    4 (T-11) = 90

    T-11=90/4

    T = (90/4) + 11

    T=33.5
