WEATHER The outside temperature is 15° Fahrenheit. Write this temperature in degrees Celsius. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

VACATION Tomas is traveling to New Zealand in March. He read that the average temperature in March is 21° Celsius. Write this temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.

Convert Temperatures

Write the equation.

Replace C with 21.

Multiply.

Simplify.

Method 1 Use the equation F = C + 32.__95

Convert Temperatures

Write the equation.

Replace C with 21.

Simplify.

Method 2 Use the equation C = (F – 32).__59

Multiply each side by .__95

Add 32 to each side.

Simplify.69.8 = F

37.8 = F – 32

+ 32 + 32

__95

● 21 = ● (F – 32)__95

__59

21 = (F – 32)__59

C = (F – 32)__59

Answer: The average temperature in March is about 69.8°F.
