Question

Your best​ friend, who is on spring break in​ Europe, e-mailed you that the temperature in Paris today is . Use the formula F

​, where F is degrees and C is degrees ​, to find the approximate Paris temperature in degrees .

Answer 1

Assuming your friend said the temperature over there was 68 degrees Fahrenheit in degrees C it would be 20 °C

Explanation:

The question is not complete, as the information, your best friend in Europe about the temperature over there is missing, nevertheless, we can proceed with this problem by plugging in an assumed temperature.

The expression for conversion from degrees F to degrees C is given as

T(°C) = (T(°F) - 32) × 5/9

Now say temperature your friend e-mailed you is 68 degrees Fahrenheit (you can as well plug in your own value)

T(°C) = (68°F - 32) × 5/9

T(°C) = (36) × 5/9

T(°C) = 180/9 = 20 °C

T(°C) = 20 °C
