Identify which pair of numbers represents the boiling point of water in degrees Fahrenheit and the boiling point of water in degrees Celsius.

A. 212 degrees Fahrenheit and 100 degrees Celsius
B. 100 degrees Fahrenheit and 232 degrees Celsius
C. 200 degrees Fahrenheit and 100 degrees Celsius
D. 100 degrees Fahrenheit and 212 degrees Celsius

Answer :

In normal conditions, the boiling point of water is 100°C.

Transform 100°C into Fahrenheit, as shown below

[tex]\begin{gathered} F=1.8C+32 \\ \Rightarrow F=1.8*100+32=180+32=212 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is 212°F and 100°C. The first option.
