We have a formula that relate temperature in degrees Farenheit and degrees Celsius.


F=(9)/(5)C+32

Then, we can convert this temperatures in both ways.

If we have a measurement of 34 degrees Celsius, we can replace C with 34 in the formula and have the measurement expressed in degrees Farenheit:


F(34)=(9)/(5)(34)+32=(306)/(5)+32=61.2+32=93.2\approx93

The equivalent temperature in degrees Farenheit, to the nearest degrees, is 93 F.
