80
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Bacteria grow most rapidly in the range of temperatures between 40 °F and 140 °F, doubling in number in as little as 20 minutes. This range of temperatures is often called the “Danger Zone.” Never leave food out of refrigeration over 2 hours.

Detailed explanation-2: -An unsafe temperature range for your food are temperatures between 41 and 135 degrees Fahrenheit. The most rapid growth of foodborne occurs between 70 and 125 degrees Fahrenheit. The longer food sits in this temperature range, the greater the risk that bacteria will grow on your food.

Detailed explanation-3: -41-135 degrees 5-57 Fahrenheit cold food kept up to 41 and hot food must be heated to 135 or higher but food can be held at highest temp. The temperature danger zone in Fahrenheit is 41 to 135, while in Celsius the temperature is 5 to 57. Bacteria grows rapidly at these temperatures. Doubling every 20 minutes.
