Question

What is the normal body temperature in degree Fahrenheit ?

• A. ${98.6}^{o}F$
• B. ${98.4}^{o}F$
• C. ${100.7}^{o}F$
• D. ${104.4}^{o}F$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

${98.6}^{o}F$

Normal body temperature is ${37}^{\circ }C$

Conversion from Celcius to Fahrenheit is

${}^{\circ }F=\frac{9}{5}{\times }^{\circ }C+{32}^{\circ }$

For ${37}^{\circ }C$

${}^{\circ }F=\frac{9}{5}\times {37}^{\circ }+{32}^{\circ }{}^{}{}^{\circ }F={66.6}^{\circ }+{32}^{\circ }={98.6}^{\circ }$
