Answer 1

To convert degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit using the correct formula, we use the following formula:

\[ F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32 \]

In your case, you want to convert \( 60^\circ C \) to Fahrenheit.

Substituting \( C = 60 \):

\[
F = \frac{9}{5}(60) + 32
\]

Calculating that step-by-step:

1. Calculate \( \frac{9}{5} \times 60 \):
\[
\frac{9 \times 60}{5} = \frac{540}{5} = 108
\]

2. Now add 32:
\[
F = 108 + 32 = 140
\]

Thus, \( 60^\circ C \) is equal to \( 140^\circ F \).

The answer is **140°F**.
