ROANOKE, Va. (WFXR) — Are you a weather fan or a meteorological expert? See if you can correctly guess this WFXR Weather Trivia question!
At what temperature do the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales give the same reading?
To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, you’ll need to use this formula: °F = (9/5) × °C + 32.
In order to find a temperature where Fahrenheit and Celsius are the same, we set °F = °C in the above equation.
- C = (9 / 5) × C + 32
- C – (9 / 5) × C = 32
- -4 / 5 × C = 32
- C = (-32 × 5) / 4
- C = -160 / 4
- C = – 40
There is one point on the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales where the temperature is equal: -40 degrees.
