Question

In the field of thermodynamics, Rankine is the unit used to measure temperature. One can convert temperature from Celsius into Rankine using the formula C =R/1.8-273 , What is the temperature in Celsius corresponding to R degrees Rankine?

Answer 1

9/5(C-273)
9/5(C+273)
5/9(C-273)
5/9(c+273)

@pooja195

Answer 4

C =R/1.8-273

i think they want you solve R

Answer 5

ok

Answer 6

do you know how to solve R in above equation ?

Answer 7

I dont

Answer 8

would the 273 add or something?

Answer 9

Yes! start by adding 273 both sides:

C+273 =R/1.8

Answer 10

next what you wanto do ?

Answer 11

something with that 1.8

Answer 12

yes get rid of it

Answer 13

have no clue on that part

Answer 14

multiply 1.8 both sides

Answer 15

you get

1.8(C+273) =R

Answer 16

notice that 1.8 = 18/10 = 9/5

Answer 17

9/5(c+273)

Answer 18

looks good!

Answer 19

thx bro
