Question

The weather forecaster predicts that today’s weather will be 70. Which temperature scale is being used? What would be the corresponding temperature on the other 2 scales?

Answer 1

This is Fahrenheit

 

Celsius = (F - 32) (5/9)   = [70 - 32] (5/9)  = [ 38](5/9)  about 21.1° C

 

Kelvin =  [ F - 32 ] (5/9) + 273.15  =  [ 70 - 32] (5/9) + 273.15  = about 294.26° K
