Minneapolis has a low altitude but is located at a higher latitude.Which vacation destination will have the warmest climate?

Answer
A
Miami
B
Denver
C
Minneapolis

Places closer to the equator generally have warmer climates because they receive more direct sunlight. Miami is at a lower latitude than Minneapolis, and its low altitude avoids the cooling effect of Denver’s high elevation. Therefore, Miami is the warmest choice.
