Question

The following formula gives the temperature's measure in degrees Fahrenheit F, where C is the measure

in degrees Celsius:
F=
9
C + 32
5
Rearrange the formula to highlight the measure in degrees Celsius.

Answer 1

The rearrenged formula is
`C = (5(F - 32))/(9)`

Explanation:

Celsius to Fahrenheit:

To realize the conversion of the temperature in degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit, we use the following equation:

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

Rearrange the formula to highlight the measure in degrees Celsius.

We want to find C in function of F. So

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

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

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