What two steps do you have to do to convert a temperture in Fahrenheit to a temperature in Celsius?
- subtract 32 from Farhenheit temperature
- multiply temperature by 5/9
So, 77 degrees Fahrenheit would be:
77 - 32 = 45 x 5/9 = 25 C
What are steps do you have to do to convert a temperature to Celsius to a temperature in Fahrenheit?
- multiply temperature in Celsius by 9/5
- add 32 to the result
25 C x 9/5 = 45 + 32 = 77
