We can use the formula:
°C = (°F - 32) x 5/9
Plugging in the given temperature:
°C = (65.2 - 32) x 5/9
Simplifying:
°C = 33.2 x 5/9
°C = 18.4
Rounding to the nearest tenth:
°C ≈ 18.4
Therefore, the temperature of 65.2°F is approximately equal to 18.4°C.
To raise money for charity, Josh and some friends are hiking across the continent of Asia. While out on the trail one day, one of his French friends asks Josh for the temperature. He glances at his precision sports watch and sees that the temperature is
