Question

which shows the formula for converting from degrees celsius to degrees fahrenheit?
°f = (9/5 × °c) + 32
°f = 5/9 × (°c - 32)
°f = °c - 273
°f = °c + 273

Explanation:

The formula for converting Celsius (\(^{\circ}C\)) to Fahrenheit (\(^{\circ}F\)) is \(^{\circ}F=(9/5\times^{\circ}C)+32\). The other options are incorrect. \(^{\circ}F = 5/9\times(^{\circ}C - 32)\) is the formula for converting Fahrenheit to Celsius. \(^{\circ}F=^{\circ}C - 273\) and \(^{\circ}F=^{\circ}C + 273\) are not related to the Celsius - Fahrenheit conversion (273 is related to the conversion between Celsius and Kelvin, \(K = ^{\circ}C+273\)).

Answer:

\(^{\circ}F=(9/5\times^{\circ}C)+32\) (the first option).
