A well-lagged thin metal rod of length 0.2 m has a temperature gradient of 416 K m\(^{-1}\). If one end is at 233º C, what is the temperature at the other end?

How come I'm getting 233⁰C - 83.2⁰C = 149.8⁰C?
And that answer is not even in the option...
After rearranging we're supposed to get a subtraction sign right? where is the plus coming from?
