Q4 of 15 Page 103

Solve the following examples.

What must be the temperature in Fahrenheit so that it will be twice its value in Celsius?

Given data:


● Temperature in Fahrenheit = 2×Temperture in Celsius


Calculation:


The relation between the temperature in Celsius and Fahrenheit scale is as follows.



Let T be the temperature in Celsius. Then,


2T be the temperature in Fahrenheit






T = 1600C


Then, 2T = 2 × 160 0C


= 320 0F


The temperature in Fahrenheit so that it will be twice its value in Celsius is 320 0F.
