Answer :
To convert [tex]\(68^\circ F\)[/tex] to degrees Celsius, we can use the formula:
[tex]\[ C = \frac{5(F - 32)}{9} \][/tex]
where [tex]\(C\)[/tex] is the temperature in degrees Celsius and [tex]\(F\)[/tex] is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.
Let's go through the steps:
1. Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature:
[tex]\( 68 - 32 = 36 \)[/tex]
2. Multiply the result by 5:
[tex]\( 5 \times 36 = 180 \)[/tex]
3. Divide the result by 9:
[tex]\(\frac{180}{9} = 20\)[/tex]
Therefore, [tex]\(68^\circ F\)[/tex] is equivalent to [tex]\(20^\circ C\)[/tex].
[tex]\[ C = \frac{5(F - 32)}{9} \][/tex]
where [tex]\(C\)[/tex] is the temperature in degrees Celsius and [tex]\(F\)[/tex] is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.
