Answer:

The Celsius temperature is 5° when the Fahrenheit temperature is 41°.

Explanation:

Given that:

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

Where,

F represents the temperature in Fahrenheit

C represents the temperature in Celsius

For calculating Celsius temperature from 41° Fahrenheit, we will put F=41 in given equation


41=(9)/(5)C+32

Subtracting 32 from both sides


41-32=(9)/(5)C+32-32\\9=(9)/(5)C

Multiplying both sides by 5/9


(5)/(9)*9=(5)/(9)*(9)/(5)C\\5=C\\

C = 5°

Hence,

The Celsius temperature is 5° when the Fahrenheit temperature is 41°.
