To conserve energy, room temperatures are kept at 68.0ºF in the winter and 78.0ºF in the summer. What are these temperatures on the Celsius scale?
Solution 3PE
T oC=
(68oF -32)
=(36)oC
= 20oC
In winter, the temperature on the Celsius scale is 20oC .
T oC=(78.0oF -32)
=(46)oC
= 25.6oC
In summer, the temperature on the Celsius scale is 25.6oC .
