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

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

Answer :

To convert a temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius, we use the formula:

[tex]\[ C = \frac{(F - 32) \times 5}{9} \][/tex]

where [tex]\( F \)[/tex] represents the temperature in Fahrenheit, and [tex]\( C \)[/tex] represents the temperature in Celsius.

Now, let's convert [tex]\(-15.0^\circ F\)[/tex] to Celsius.

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

2. Multiply the result by 5:
[tex]\(-47.0 \times 5 = -235.0\)[/tex]

3. Divide the result by 9:
[tex]\(-235.0 \div 9 = -26.1111\ldots\)[/tex]

So, [tex]\(-15.0^\circ F\)[/tex] is approximately [tex]\(-26.11^\circ C\)[/tex].
