Assalamoalaikum!!

well it's nt much difficult!! it's simple...see it means to say how many temp. are in the range 1 +/- 2.5 °C

if u r confused.. 1+2.5 = 3.5 °C ...and .... 1-2.5 = -1.5 °C
so u need to write down how many temp. are in the range from -1.5 to 3.5...
so there are 6 temp.!!

that's all
hope this helps!!
