The temperature at which the centigrade thermometer read twice as much as the Fahrenheit thermometer is 320°.
- The conversion formula for converting Fahrenheit into Centigrade is :
F = 9/5C + 32 eq(1)
- According to the requirements, F = 2C.
- Now, Substituting F in eq(1), we get,
2C = 9/5C + 32
- Now, Subtracting 9/5C from both sides
2C - 9/5C = 9/5C + 32 - 9/5C
2C - 9/5C = 32
10/5C - 9/5C = 32
1/5C = 32
C = 160°
- Therefore, F = 2C
= 2(160°)
= 320°
