Question

Water freezes at thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit, or zero degrees Celsius. Use temperature conversion formulas to show that these two measures are indeed the same temperature.

Answer 1

Let's use body temperature for a comparison
98.6 F = 37 C

Fahrenheit = (9/5)*Centigrade +32
F = 9/5 * 37 + 32
F = 66.6 + 32
F = 98.6

Centigrade = (Fahrenheit -32) * (5/9)
C = (98.6 -32) * (5/9)
C = 66.6 * 5/9
C = 37

Answer 2

thanks

Answer 3

Showed my age there - Centigrade is an old term for Celsius. :-)
