TEMPERATURE SCALES
The relation between the temperature in Fahrenheit scale and Celsius scale is
given by,
C = F – 32
5
9
Where C is the temperature in Celsius scale
F is the temperature in Fahrenheit scale
Eg 1:- Convert 45◦ C to the Fahrenheit scale.
C = F – 32
5
9
45 = F – 32
5
9
9 = F – 32
9
81 = F – 32
F = 81+ 32
F = 113◦
Eg 2 :- Convert 104◦ Fahrenheit to Celsius scale.
C = F – 32
5
9
C = 104 – 32
5
9
C = 72
5
9
C = 8
5
therefore C = 40◦
