Answer 2

Any ideas?

Answer 3

Nope Im Confused.

Answer 4

Use the idea of "balance" to become unconfused.

Answer 5

Whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must do the same to the other, get the idea? Like a weight balance.

Answer 6

Okay.

Answer 7

$$\Huge F = \frac{9}5 C + 32$$ $$\Huge F-32 = \frac{9}5 C + 32-32$$ $$\Huge F-32 = \frac{9}5 C $$

Answer 8

Can You Explain ?

Answer 9

I subtracted 32 from BOTH sides.

Answer 10

Now I will multiply BOTH sides by what?

Answer 11

$$\Huge \frac{5}9\cdot(F-32) =\frac{5}9 \cdot\frac{9}5 C $$ $$\Huge \frac{5}9\cdot(F-32) = C $$
