To solve this temperature conversion worksheet, we need to convert temperatures from
Fahrenheit (°F) to
Celsius (°C) using the formula:
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9} (°F - 32)
$$
Let’s go through each problem step by step.
---
1) 82°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(82 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(50) = \frac{250}{9} \approx 27.78°C
$$
Answer: 27.8°C (rounded to one decimal place)
---
2) 1°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(1 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(-31) = -\frac{155}{9} \approx -17.22°C
$$
Answer: -17.2°C
---
3) 91°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(91 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(59) = \frac{295}{9} \approx 32.78°C
$$
Answer: 32.8°C
---
4) -14°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(-14 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(-46) = -\frac{230}{9} \approx -25.56°C
$$
Answer: -25.6°C
---
5) 62°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(62 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(30) = \frac{150}{9} \approx 16.67°C
$$
Answer: 16.7°C
---
6) 16°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(16 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(-16) = -\frac{80}{9} \approx -8.89°C
$$
Answer: -8.9°C
---
7) 83°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(83 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(51) = \frac{255}{9} \approx 28.33°C
$$
Answer: 28.3°C
---
8) 87°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(87 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(55) = \frac{275}{9} \approx 30.56°C
$$
Answer: 30.6°C
---
9) 94°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(94 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(62) = \frac{310}{9} \approx 34.44°C
$$
Answer: 34.4°C
---
10) 98°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(98 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(66) = \frac{330}{9} \approx 36.67°C
$$
Answer: 36.7°C
---
11) 9°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(9 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(-23) = -\frac{115}{9} \approx -12.78°C
$$
Answer: -12.8°C
---
12) 42°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(42 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(10) = \frac{50}{9} \approx 5.56°C
$$
Answer: 5.6°C
---
13) 0°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(0 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(-32) = -\frac{160}{9} \approx -17.78°C
$$
Answer: -17.8°C
---
14) 81°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(81 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(49) = \frac{245}{9} \approx 27.22°C
$$
Answer: 27.2°C
---
15) 41°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(41 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(9) = 5°C
$$
Answer: 5°C
---
16) 85°F → °C
$$
°C = \frac{5}{9}(85 - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(53) = \frac{265}{9} \approx 29.44°C
$$
Answer: 29.4°C
