Answer :
To convert [tex]\(68^\circ F\)[/tex] to Celsius using the formula [tex]\(C = \frac{5}{9}(F-32)\)[/tex], follow these steps:
1. Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature:
[tex]\(68 - 32 = 36\)[/tex].
2. Multiply the result by [tex]\(\frac{5}{9}\)[/tex]:
[tex]\(\frac{5}{9} \times 36\)[/tex].
3. Calculate the multiplication:
[tex]\(5 \times 36 = 180\)[/tex].
4. Divide by 9:
[tex]\(\frac{180}{9} = 20\)[/tex].
So, [tex]\(68^\circ F\)[/tex] is equivalent to [tex]\(20^\circ C\)[/tex] on the Celsius scale.
