You have the formula wrong
C = (5/9)(F-32)
check
when F = 32, C = 0 freezing point- right
when F = 212, C=100 boiling point - right
so
put in -10 for F
C = (5/9)(-42)
I think you can do that.
Many thanks

Step 1: Start with the Fahrenheit temperature.
Given Fahrenheit temperature: -10°F
Step 2: Plug the Fahrenheit temperature into the formula: C = 5(F - 32)
C = 5(-10 - 32)
Step 3: Simplify the equation by performing the operations inside the parentheses.
C = 5(-42)
Step 4: Perform the remaining multiplication operation.
C = -210
Step 5: The result is the temperature in Celsius.
The Celsius equivalent of -10°F is -210°C.
Therefore, -10°F is equivalent to -210°C.
Step 1: Substitute the value of F into the formula.
C = 5(-10 - 32)
Step 2: Simplify the equation using proper order of operations (BIDMAS/PEMDAS).
C = 5(-42)
C = -210
Step 3: The result, -210 degrees Celsius, is the equivalent temperature of −10◦F.
Therefore, −10◦F is equivalent to -210◦C.
