13°C

Answer 1

To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula:

\[ C = \frac{5}{9}(F - 32) \]

Where \( F \) is the temperature in Fahrenheit and \( C \) is the temperature in Celsius.

In this case, you want to convert 149°F to Celsius:

\[ C = \frac{5}{9}(149 - 32) \] \[ C = \frac{5}{9}(117) \] \[ C = \frac{585}{9} \] \[ C \approx 65°C \]

So, the equivalent temperature in Celsius is 65°C.
