METEOROLOGIST JEFF HABY. F = 9/5*C + 32. To find the temperature both scales are equal we can use another equation and combine it with this previous equation. The equation is simply F = C. Plug in for F or C and solve. C = 9/5*C + 32. -4/5*C = 32. F = 9/5*F + 32. -4/5*F = 32. Thus, at the cold temperature of negative 40, this temperature is the same on both the Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature scales.
0 degrees Fahrenheit is equal to -17.77778 degrees Celsius: 0 F = -17.77778 C. The temperature T in degrees Celsius (C) is equal to the temperature T in degrees Fahrenheit (F) minus 32, times 5/9: T (C) = (T (F) - 32) Ã 5/9.
