Answer:

  warmer by 30.2 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

It might help to think of these values plotted on a number line. Both temperatures will be left of zero, with -63°C being farther to the left (colder).

The difference can be found by subtracting the colder temperature from the warmer one:

  -32.8 -(-63) = -32.8 +63 = 63 -32.8 = 30.2 . . . degrees

The South America temperature -32.8°C is 30.2° warmer than the North America temperature.
