Convert 77 °F to °C

To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit. We apply the following formula:


\bf{^(\circ)C= (5)/(9)(^(\circ)F-32) \ \longmapsto \ Formula }

We substitute the number 77 where the Fahrenheit degrees are, and we are left with the following form.


\bf{^(\circ)C= (5)/(9)(77-32) \ \longmapsto \ \ Subtract \ 32 \ from \ 77. }


\bf{^(\circ)C= (5)/(9)*45 \ \longmapsto \ \ Multiply \ 5*45, divide \ by \ 9 }


\bf{^(\circ)C=25}

So 77 Fahrenheit, on the Celsius scale is 25.So the correct alternative is option "A".
