Answer:

32°F

Explanation:

The temperature conversion formulae for degrees Fahrenheit(F) to degrees Celsius (C)

C = (F - 32) x 5/9

F = 9/5 x C + 32

Specifically, 0° C which is the freezing point of water is 32° F

For 0°C, F = 9/5 x 0 + 32 = 32°F

ANSWER

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note: 100° C is the boiling point of water and converts to 212°F
