A child went to the doctor. The doctor took the child's temperature. On his note pad the doctor noted the temperature as 97.6. After the examination the doctor told the child that he was perfectly healthy. How can this be?

Answer:

98.6 degrees Fahrenheit is only an average of people's body temperatures. Someone's true temperature may be either a little higher or a little lower.
