I'm not sure what you're asking here

Explanation:


(9)/(5c) + 32 = f


(9)/(5c + 32) = f

Assuming the former


(9)/(5c) + 32 = f \\ (9)/(5c) = f - 32 \\ (9)/(5) = c(f - 32) \\ c = (9)/(5(f - 32))

Assuming the latter


(9)/(5c + 32) = f \\ 9 = f(5c + 32) \\ 9 = 5cf + 32f \\ 9 - 32f = 5cf \\ (9 - 32f)/(5f) = c
