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 following formula:

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

Where:
- [tex]\( C \)[/tex] is the temperature in degrees Celsius.
- [tex]\( F \)[/tex] is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.

Let's convert [tex]\(-15.0^\circ F\)[/tex] to Celsius step by step:

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

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

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