🔍 Key Concepts

• Fahrenheit–Celsius conversion formula: how to convert from °F to °C • The meaning of "room temperature" in Celsius and Fahrenheit • Order of operations when applying a formula (subtract, then multiply, then divide)

💭 Think About

• What is the standard formula for converting a Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius? Write it down before doing any math. • When using the formula, do you subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit value first, or multiply/divide first? How does that affect the result? • Once you compute the Celsius value, does it seem like a reasonable "room temperature" compared to typical indoor temperatures?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure you use the correct formula: subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature before multiplying. • Check that your final Celsius value is in the typical room-temperature range (around 20–25 °C). • Verify your arithmetic carefully: especially the step where you multiply by 5/9 or divide by 9/5.
