What temperature is Celsius and Fahrenheit equal?
Solution:
The two different types of units or scales to measure temperature are Celsius and Fahrenheit.
Let's look into the conversion between Celsius and Fahrenheit scales in detail.
The formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit is given by °F = °C × (9/5) + 32.
Now, in order to find a temperature where Fahrenheit and celsius are the same, we put F = C in the above equation.
C = (C × 9/5) + 32
C = 9C/5 +32
C - 9C/5 = 32
(5C - 9C)/5 = 32
-4C = 32 × 5
-4C = 160
C = 160/(-4)
C = - 40
Hence, we get F = C = -40.
Thus, at -40°F, the temperature is equal to -40°C.
What temperature is Celsius and Fahrenheit equal?
Summary:
The temperature where Fahrenheit and Celsius are the same is (-40) i.e., - 40°F = -40°C.
