Question

The temperature today is 47°F what's the temperature in C°?

Answer 1

To convert degrees from Fahrenheit to Celsius we need to use the following formula:

$C=\frac{5(F-32)}{9}$

Where C is Celsius and F is Fahrenheit degrees.

In this case, the given temperature in Fahrenheit is:

$F=47$

We substitute it into the formula to find the result in Celsius:

$C=\frac{5(47-32)}{9}$

Solving the operations:

$\begin{gathered} C=\frac{5(15)}{9} \\ \\ C=\frac{75}{9} \\ \\ C=8.33 \end{gathered}$

Answer: 8.33°C
