A temperature gauge reads 95F. Which of the following is the correct conversion to degrees Celsius? (Note: C = 5/9[F - 32])

Rationale

The correct conversion of 95F to degrees Celsius is 35C.

The conversion formula from Fahrenheit to Celsius is C = 5/9[F - 32]. When you substitute 95 for F in the formula, it gives 35 for C. This is the accurate conversion for 95F to degrees Celsius.

A (113C) YOUR ANSWER

This choice is incorrect because it does not follow the conversion formula from Fahrenheit to Celsius. Plugging 95 into the formula C = 5/9[F - 32] does not yield 113C.

B (63C) YOUR ANSWER

This choice is also incorrect because it does not follow the conversion formula from Fahrenheit to Celsius. If we substitute 95 for F in the formula C = 5/9[F - 32], the result is not 63C.

D (21C) YOUR ANSWER

This choice is incorrect as well. Using the conversion formula C = 5/9[F - 32] and substituting 95F does not result in 21C.

Conclusion

The correct conversion of 95F to degrees Celsius follows the formula C = 5/9[F - 32]. Substituting 95 for F in this formula provides 35C. The other choices - 113C, 63C, and 21C - do not follow this formula, making them incorrect answers for the conversion of 95F to degrees Celsius.

A temperature gauge reads 95F. Which of the following is the correct conversion to degrees Celsius? (Note: C = 5/9[F - 32])

The correct conversion of 95F to degrees Celsius is 35C.
