Question

convert the given fahrenheit temperature to its equivalent temperature on the celsius scale. 44°f 44°f = 6.7°c (round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Explanation:

Step1: Write conversion formula

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

Step2: Substitute F value

$C=\frac{5}{9}(44 - 32)$

Step3: Calculate inside parentheses

$C=\frac{5}{9}\times12$

Step4: Perform multiplication

$C=\frac{60}{9}\approx6.7$

Answer:

$6.7$
