Convert [tex] -15.0^{\circ} F [/tex] to Celsius.

[tex] -15.0^{\circ} F = [?]^{\circ} C [/tex]

Answer :

To convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the conversion formula:

[tex]\[ \text{Celsius} = (\text{Fahrenheit} - 32) \times \frac{5}{9} \][/tex]

Let's apply this formula to the given temperature of [tex]\(-15.0^\circ F\)[/tex]:

1. Start with the Fahrenheit temperature: [tex]\(-15.0\)[/tex].

2. Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature:
[tex]\(-15.0 - 32 = -47.0\)[/tex].

3. Multiply the result by [tex]\(\frac{5}{9}\)[/tex]:
[tex]\(-47.0 \times \frac{5}{9} = -26.1111\ldots\)[/tex].

Rounded to one decimal place, the Celsius temperature is approximately [tex]\(-26.1^\circ C\)[/tex].

So, [tex]\(-15.0^\circ F\)[/tex] is approximately [tex]\(-26.1^\circ C\)[/tex].
