Question

Convert 63°F to degrees Celsius. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree. Here are the formulas. C= = (F-32) 9 F= – 0+32 5

Answer 1

We need to apply the formula to convert Fahrenheit degrees to Celsius degrees:

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

We have 63 Fahrenheit degrees, then:

`C=(63-32)\cdot(5)/(9)=31\cdot(5)/(9)=(155)/(9)=17.2222\ldots`

Rounding the result for the nearest tenth (1/10) of a degree, we finally have:

`C=17.2`

Or 63 Fahrenheit degrees are equivalent to 17.2 Celsius degrees.
