he temperature measured in Kelvin (K) is the temperature measured in Celsius (C) increased by 273.15. This can be modeled by the equation K = C + 273.15. When solved for C, the equation is

For this case we have the following equation:

K = C + 273.15
Where,
C: It is the temperature measured in degrees Celsius
K: It is the temperature measured in Kelvin
From here, we must clear the value of C.
To do this, we subtract 273.15 from both sides of the equation.
We have then:

K - 273.15 = C + 273.15 - 273.15
Rewriting we have:

K - 273.15 = C + 0 C = K - 273.15
Answer:
solved for C, the equation is:

C = K - 273.15

we have that
K = C + 273.15
solve for C
subtract 273.15 both sides
K-273.15=C
C=K-273.15

the answer is
C=K-273.15
