Conversion Formula from Fahrenheit to Celsius
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. When it comes to temperature measurement, the most common units used are Celsius (C) and Fahrenheit (F).
To convert a temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius, we can use the following formula:
Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) × 5/9Temperature conversion is the process of converting a temperature measurement from one unit to another. And to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, we simply need to plug the given temperature into the formula mentioned above.
For example, let's convert 101.5 °F to °C:
Celsius = (101.5 - 32) × 5/9
Celsius = 69.5 × 5/9
After calculation, we find that 101.5 °F is equivalent to 38.61 °C.
