Question

To convert temperature in ${}^{0}F$ into ${}^{0}C$ we use the formula

• A. $\frac{F}{100}=\frac{C-32}{180}$
• B. $C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)$
• C. $F=\frac{5}{9}(C-32)$
• D. $C=\frac{9}{5}(F-32)$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)$

$\frac{C-0}{100}=\frac{F-32}{180}$

$\frac{C}{5}=\frac{F-32}{9}$

$C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)$

$\therefore$ The solution is $C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)$.
