If temperature of an object is $$140^\circ F$$, then its temperature in centigrade is

A$$105^\circ C$$
B$$32^\circ C$$
C$$140^\circ C$$
D$$60^\circ C$$
Correct Answer

Solution

Relation between celsius and farenhite is given by
$$\dfrac{C}{5} = \dfrac{F - 32}{9} $$

$$\dfrac{C}{5} = \dfrac{F - 32}{9} \Rightarrow \dfrac{C}{5} = \dfrac{140 - 32}{9} \Rightarrow C = 60^\circ C$$
