Question

How do you convert 45°C to Fahrenheit?

Answer 1

Step 1: Given

Given that, celsius scale reading is 45^o c, we have to find the Fahrenheit scale reading.

Step 2: Celsius and Fahrenheit scale

1. Celsius and Fahrenheit are two widely used scales that measure the temperature of a body.
2. The relation between celsius and Fahrenheit scales is $\frac{C}{5}=\frac{F-32}{9}$, where C and F are the celsius and Fahrenheit scale readings.

Step 3: Conversion of Celsius scale

Now applying the formulae, $\frac{C}{5}=\frac{F-32}{9}$ we get

$$\begin{gathered} \frac{45}{5}=\frac{F-32}{9}. \\ \Rightarrow F-32=81. \\ \Rightarrow F=113degreefahrenheit. \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, 45°C is equal to 113^o F.
