Answer:The formulas for converting between degree Celsius and degree Fahrenheit are:
°F=(°C∗9/5)+32
°C=(°F−32)∗5/9
To find the temperature when both are equal, we use an old algebra trick and just set ºF = ºC and solve one of the equations.
°C=(°C∗9/5)+32
°C−(°C∗9/5)=32
−4/5∗°C=32
°C=−32∗5/4
°C=−40
°F=(°F∗9/5)+32
°F−(°F∗9/5)=32
−4/5∗°F=32
°F=−32∗5/4
°F=−40
So the temperature when both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are the same is −40degrees.

To find:
The temperatures for which the readings in Celsius and Fahrenheit scales differ by 5°
Calculation:
Case 1 : (When C - F = 5°)
So, C = (5 + F) = (5 - 51.25) = 46.25°
Case 2:( F - C = 5°)
F = (5 + C) = -28.75°
Hope It Helps.
