Temperature is a measure of the warmth or coldness of an object or substance. The two most commonly used temperature scales are Fahrenheit (°F) and Celsius (°C). The Celsius scale is based on the freezing point of water being 0°C and the boiling point being 100°C, while the Fahrenheit scale uses 32°F for freezing and 212°F for boiling.
To convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the following formula:
°C = (°F - 32) × 5/9
Applying this formula to 150°F:
°C = (150°F - 32) × 5/9 = **65.56°C**
Therefore, 150°F is equivalent to 65.56°C.
For easy reference, here is a conversion table for temperatures from 140°F to 160°F to their Celsius equivalents:
Fahrenheit (°F) | Celsius (°C) |
---|---|
140 | 60 |
145 | 62.78 |
150 | 65.56 |
155 | 68.33 |
160 | 71.11 |
Step 1: Write down the Fahrenheit temperature to be converted.
Step 2: Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature.
Step 3: Multiply the result by 5.
Step 4: Divide the result by 9.
Step 5: The final answer is the Celsius equivalent.
