Question

A recipe calls for an oven temperature of 400°f. the cook set the oven for 220°c. by how many degrees fahrenheit was the temperature off?

a. 16° too cool
b. 28° too hot
c. 8° too cool
d. 3° too hot

Answer 1

converting celsius to farenheit
C * 1.8 + 32
220 * 1.8 + 32 = 396 + 32 = 428 F....so 220 C = 428 F

so he set the oven for 428 F, when it was supposed to be set for 400 F
428 - 400 = 28.....28 degrees too hot
