Convert 59°F to degrees Celsius. Solve the formula for C, and then use it to
convert the temperature.
Which is the correct formula and conversion?
OA. C=F-32; conversion: 59°F = 135°C
OB. C= (F-32); conversion: 59°F = 15°C
OC. C= (F-32); conversion: 59°F = 106°C
OD. C=F-32; conversion: 59°F = 15°C

The formula to convert degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius is:

[tex]\bf{^{\circ}C=\dfrac{5}{9}(^{\circ}F-32) \ \ \to \ \ \ Formula }[/tex]

Convert 59°F to degrees Celsius.

Add the number 59 in the formula, and solve.

        [tex]\bf{=\dfrac{5}{9}(59-32) }[/tex]

Subtract 32 from 59.

         [tex]\bf{=\dfrac{5}{9}(27) }[/tex]

Multiply 5 x 9 = 135, then divide 135/9 = 15.

         [tex]\bf{=15 \ ^{\circ}C}[/tex]

Therefore 59 °F = 15 °C. The correct option is "D".
