need the explanation please

correct answer is 373
the answer is wrong
the velocity of sound varies directly with the square root of its absolute temperature

V1/√T1 = V2/√T2

Multiplying both sides by √T2

V2 = V1 √T2/√T1

convert temperature to kelvin
temp in Celsius+ 273 = temp in kelvin

V2 = 354 * √320/288

V2 = 354 * √1.1111
V2 = 373 ms·¹
