Before bathing, the water temperature should be:
A
115 degrees Fahrenheit.
B
110 degrees Fahrenheit.
C
105 degrees Fahrenheit.
D
101 degrees Fahrenheit.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -What Is the Ideal Bath Temperature? The ideal temperature for your bath is somewhere between 90° F and 105° F (32° C – 40° C), which is just above the average body temperature. And don’t worry, you don’t have to get a thermometer to measure the temperature. Simply hold your wrist, not your hand, in the water.

Detailed explanation-2: -Experts have recommended that the ideal bath temperature should only be a few degrees higher than normal body temperature. Thus, the best temperature is estimated to be between 98 degrees to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. However, some might enjoy their showers a little colder, while others prefer a steamier bath time.

Detailed explanation-3: -100/105 degrees: Hot. A generally endurable range for most hot bath requirements. 15-20 minutes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Typically, hot water somewhere in the range of 105° and 115°F is ideal for proofing dry yeast. 95°F is often recommended for live yeast, but it may not be hot enough at 95°F for activating the dry yeast.
