Respuesta :

The temperature in degree Fahrenheit is 18.1 °F

What is this temperature in degrees Celsius (°C)?

To convert the temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius, we can use the following formula

[tex]C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)[/tex]

Where F is the temperature in degree Fahrenheit.

Let us substitute F = 18.1 into the above formula

[tex]\begin{gathered} C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32) \\ C=\frac{5}{9}(18.1-32) \\ C=\frac{5}{9}(-13.9) \\ C=-\frac{139}{18} \\ C=-7.7\degree \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the temperature in degrees Celsius is -7.7 °C
