Math Problem Statement

Convert a temperature of 31°C to °F. Convert a temperature of 92°F to °C.

Solution

To convert temperatures between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F), you can use the following formulas:

  1. Celsius to Fahrenheit:
    F=(95×C)+32F = \left( \frac{9}{5} \times C \right) + 32
  2. Fahrenheit to Celsius:
    C=59×(F32)C = \frac{5}{9} \times (F - 32)

Let's perform the conversions:

1. Convert 31°C to Fahrenheit:

F=(95×31)+32=55.8+32=87.8°FF = \left( \frac{9}{5} \times 31 \right) + 32 = 55.8 + 32 = 87.8°F

2. Convert 92°F to Celsius:

C=59×(9232)=59×60=33.33°CC = \frac{5}{9} \times (92 - 32) = \frac{5}{9} \times 60 = 33.33°C

So, the conversions are:

  • 31°C = 87.8°F
  • 92°F = 33.33°C
