Solution 1
Due to enhancing density and pressure the temperature goes on increasing gradually towards inside of the interior of the earth.
Solution 2
The temperature starts rising gradually towards the interior of the Earth due to the increasing pressure and the presence of radioactive decay of elements deep within the Earth. As we move deeper, the pressure increases, causing the materials to become more compact, and this results in an increase in temperature. Additionally, heat from the Earth's formation and the radioactive decay of isotopes contribute to the gradual rise in temperature towards the Earth's core.
