F=9C/5+32 subtract 32 from both sides

F-32=9C/5 multiply both sides by 5/9

C=5(F-32)/9

The first step you should do is subtract 32 from both sides so your answer will turn out like this -

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

Then we will multiply both sides by 5.

5 ( F - 32 ) = 9 C

Divide both sides by 9 to isolate C.

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

So the answer is :

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

Hope this helps :)
