Question
What is the temperature which has the same numerical value in kelvin scale and Fahrenheit scale?
✓
Answer
Let x be the required value in Kelvin and Fahrenheit scales. $\frac{\text{x}-273}{373-273}=\frac{\text{x}-32}{212-32}$ $\frac{\text{x}-273}{100}=\frac{\text{x}-32}{180}$ $9(\text{x}-273)=5(\text{x}-32)$ $\Rightarrow9\text{x}-2457=5\text{x}-160$ $4\text{x}=2457-160=2297$ $\text{x}=\frac{2297}{4}=574.25^\circ$ $574.25\text{K}=574.25^\circ\text{F}.$
