Question

Convert 59°F to degrees Celsius.If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree.

Answer 1

Answer: 15 Degrees Celsius.

Explanation:

1. If you want to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, do the opposite: subtract 30 from the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, and then divide by 2 to get the temperature in degrees Celsius.

2. BOOM! You get 15.

Answer 2

Remember that the formula used to convert to °C from F is:

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

Plugging in the 59F in the formula,

`C=(5)/(9)(59-32)\rightarrow C=(5)/(9)(27)\rightarrow C=15`

We'll get 15°C
