Final answer:
The correct formula to convert temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit is F = 9/5(K - 273) + 32, reflecting the scaling and offset differences between the Fahrenheit and Kelvin temperature scales.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the temperature in Fahrenheit given the temperature in Kelvin, the correct formula to use is B. F = 9/5(K - 273) + 32. This formula takes into account that on the Fahrenheit scale, the difference between the freezing and boiling points of water is 180 degrees, which corresponds to a 100-degree difference on the Celsius scale. Therefore, to convert from Kelvin (or Celsius) to Fahrenheit, you would multiply by 9/5 and then add 32 to adjust for the differences in the starting points of the two scales (the freezing point of water is 0°C or 273.15K and 32°F).
