To answer this question we have to solve the given equation for F, to do it we can use different algebraic operations to isolate F to one side of the equation:


\begin{gathered} C=(F-32)/(1.8) \\ 1.8\cdot C=1.8\cdot(F-32)/(1.8) \\ 1.8C+32=F-32+32 \\ F=1.8C+32 \end{gathered}

The answer is:


F=1.8C+32
