Guillaume puts a bottle of a soft drink in a refrigerator and leaves it there until its temperature has dropped 15.4 K. What is the magnitude of its temperature change = 15.4 K in degrees Celsius?
I have no clue what I'm doing wrong..... I tried 15.4 - 273.15
Can anyone show me how to do this problem? Thanks in advance!

Celsius and Kelvin are equal in magnitude, the differ only in where 0 is located.
A 15.4 K drop in temperature is a 15.4 C drop in temperature.
What you did was convert 15.4 K to degrees C.
