Answer 2

Answer: C = -106.6°, F = -160°

Explanation:

Let C = x, then F will be 3x/2

According to Question,

C-0/F-32 = 100-0/212-32

Putting Values in the equation,

2x/3x-64 = 5/9 (Taking LCM)

18x = 15x-320

18x-15x = -320

x= -106.6°

Now, F = 3x/2

F = 3 × (-106.6)/2 = -160°

Temperature in Kelvin = 273.15 + C° = 166.55
