Question

The coldest temperature recorded on the surface of a planet was -248 degrees C. The warmest temperature recorded on the surface of the planet was 118 degrees C. What’s are the corresponding temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit? Use the formula F = 9/5 c+32

Answer 1

Coldest temperature recorded (in C) = -248°

Warmest temperature recorded (in C) = 118°

Also we know F =
`(9)/(5) * C + 32`, where F is temperature in Fahrenheit and C is temperature in Celsius

⇒ Coldest temperature recorded (in F) =
`(9)/(5) * (-248) + 32`

⇒ Coldest temperature recorded (in F) = -446.4 + 32

⇒ Coldest temperature recorded (in F) = -414.4°

Hence, the coldest temperature recorded is -414.4° Fahreheit

And Warmest temperature recorded (in F) =
`(9)/(5) * 118 + 32`

⇒ Warmest temperature recorded (in F) = 212.4 + 32

⇒ Warmest temperature recorded (in F) = 244.4°

Hence, the warmest temperature recorded is 244.4° Fahreheit
