Question

A measured temperature on the Fahrenheit scale is ${200}^{0}F$. What will this reading be on the Celsius scale?

• A. ${40}^{\circ }C$
• B. ${94}^{\circ }C$
• C. ${93.3}^{\circ }C$
• D. ${30}^{\circ }C$

Answer 1

The correct option is C ${93.3}^{\circ }C$

The relationship between temperature on Fahrenheit scale and temperature of celsius scale is ${}^{o}C\times \frac{9}{5}+32{=}^{o}F$.

Substituting values in the above expression, we get-
${}^{o}C\times \frac{9}{5}+32={200}^{o}F$

Thus, the temperature is ${93.3}^{o}C$.

Hence, option $C$ is correct.
