Given: The mercury thread of a thermometer rises by 4/5 parts
To find The temperature of the warm water in Fahrenheit.
Solution:
- The degree Celsius is denoted as C° and the degree Fahrenheit is denoted as F°. The relation between Fahrenheit and Celsius is 1° C = 33.8° F.
- Fahrenheit and Celsius are the denotations of the measurement of temperature.
- Since the mercury is raised by 3/4 part, then the temperature in Celsius is given as -
C = 4/5 × 100 = 80°C
To find the temperature in Fahrenheit scale, we use the formula -
C/5 = (F - 32)/9
Substituting the value of Celsius in the equation, we get -
80/5 = (F - 32)/9
16 = (F - 32)/9
16 × 9 = F - 32
F = 32 + 144
F = 176°F
Therefore, the temperature of the warm water in Fahrenheit is 176°F
