Question

The air temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (°F)
can be converted to degrees Celsius (°C)
by taking the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, subtracting 32, and then dividing the result by 1.8
.

Which equation can be used to convert °F
to °C
? What is 77°F
in °C
?

Answer 1

To convert temperatures from degrees Fahrenheit (°F) to degrees Celsius (°C), you can use the following equation:

\[
C = \frac{F - 32}{1.8}
\]

where \( C \) represents the temperature in degrees Celsius and \( F \) represents the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.

To convert 77°F to °C, you can substitute 77 for \( F \) in the equation:

\[
C = \frac{77 - 32}{1.8}
\]
\[
C = \frac{45}{1.8}
\]
\[
C \approx 25
\]

Therefore, 77°F is approximately 25°C.

Answer 2

how would you write the equation again?

Answer 3

The equation for converting degrees Fahrenheit (°F) to degrees Celsius (°C) can be written as:

\[
C = \frac{F - 32}{1.8}
\]

Where:
- \( C \) is the temperature in degrees Celsius
- \( F \) is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit

°F=1.8°C+32; 25°C
°F=1.8°C+32; 25°C

°F−32=°C1.8; 81°C
°F−32=°C1.8; 81°C

°F=1.8+°C+32; 43.2°C
°F=1.8+°C+32; 43.2°C

°F=1.8°C−32; 60.6°C

Answer 5

The correct equation for converting degrees Fahrenheit (°F) to degrees Celsius (°C) is:

\[
°F - 32 = °C \times 1.8
\]

This can be rewritten as:

\[
°F = 1.8°C + 32
\]

So, looking at your responses, the first option:

**°F=1.8°C+32; 25°C**

is the appropriate conversion equation, but note that for 77°F, the temperature in °C is actually 25°C, which is also correctly stated in your first response.

Thus, the full answer would be:

**Response: °F=1.8°C+32; 25°C**.
