MCQ
If temperature of an object is $140°F$, then its temperature in centigrade is........ $^oC$
- A$105$
- B$32$
- C$140$
- ✓$60$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
$60$
d
(d) $\frac{C}{5} = \frac{{F - 32}}{9}$ $⇒$ $\frac{C}{5} = \frac{{140 - 32}}{9}$ $\Rightarrow$ $C = 60^\circ C$
(d) $\frac{C}{5} = \frac{{F - 32}}{9}$ $⇒$ $\frac{C}{5} = \frac{{140 - 32}}{9}$ $\Rightarrow$ $C = 60^\circ C$
