Question

I'm confused.

I have to convert 16°f to C° using the formula f=1.8C+32 .
How to do that ?

Answer 1

16 °F = -8.89 °C

Explanation:

Given:

Temperature is Fahrenheit is,
`F= 16`° F

The formula that relates Fahrenheit and Celsius is:

`F=1.8C+32`

Express this in terms of Celsius
`C`. This gives,

`C=(F-32)/(1.8)`

Plug in 16 for
`F` and solve for
`C`. This gives,

`C=(16-32)/(1.8)=(-16)/(1.8)=-8.89`

Therefore, 16 °F is equal to -8.89 °C.
