Question 1: Convert Fahrenheit to Celsius: (a) 0o F (b) 15o F (c) 40o F. Solution:
The Fahrenheit to Celsius is given by the formula C = (F - 32) ×59
(a) 0o F = (0 - 32) ×59 = - 17.78o C
(b) 15o F = (15 - 32) ×59 = -9.45o C
(c) 40o F = (40 - 32) ×59 = 4.45o C.
Question 2: Convert the following in to Fahrenheit: (a) 25o C (b) 45o C (c) 100o C. Solution:
To convert the Celsius to Fahrenheit is given by formula F = C ×95+ 32 25oC = 25 ×95 + 32 = 5 × 9 + 32 = 77o F 45oC = 45 ×95 + 32 = 9 × 9 + 32 = 113o F 100oC = 100 ×95 + 32 = 20 × 9 + 32 = 212o F.
