Question

A recipe calls for an oven to be preheated to 400 °F. What is the approximate temperature of the preheated oven in Celsius degrees? °C = 5 9 (°F − 32)

A) 225 °C B) 204 °C C) 368 °C D) 375 °C

Answer 1

204

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer : The correct option is, (B)
`204^oC`

Step-by-step explanation :

The conversion used for the temperature from Fahrenheit to degree Celsius is:

`^oC=(5)/(9)* (^oF-32)`

where,

`^oF` = temperature in Fahrenheit

`^oC` = temperature in centigrade

Given:

Temperature in Fahrenheit =
`400^oF`

Now put the value of Fahrenheit in above expression, we get the value of temperature in Celsius degrees.

`^oC=(5)/(9)* (400-32)`

`^oC=204.4\approx 204`

Therefore, the approximate temperature of the preheated oven in Celsius degrees is,
`204^oC`
