Answer: second option

Explanation:

The formula to convert the temperature from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius is:


C=(5)/(9)(F-32)

Where C is the temperature in degrees Celsius and F is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.

Having the temperature 59 °F (degrees Fahrenheit), you need to substitute it into the formula
C=(5)/(9)(F-32) to make the conversion from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius (C).

Then, you get:


C=(5)/(9)(59-32)\\C=15\°
