To find the temperature in degrees Celsius from 32°F using the formula \( C = \frac{5}{9} (F - 32) \), we can follow these steps:
-
Substitute 32 for F in the formula: \[ C = \frac{5}{9} (32 - 32) \]
-
Simplify the expression inside the parentheses: \[ C = \frac{5}{9} (0) \]
-
Now multiply: \[ C = 0 \]
So the fill-in-the-blanks would be:
C = 5/9 (32-32)
= 5/9 (0)
= 0°C
Therefore, the final answer is 0°C.
