Answer for screen readers

The temperature in Celsius is approximately 6.11°C

Steps to Solve

  1. Identify the conversion formula

The formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is:

$$ C = \frac{5}{9} (F - 32) $$

  1. Substitute the given Fahrenheit temperature

Substitute 43°F into the formula:

$$ C = \frac{5}{9} (43 - 32) $$

  1. Perform the subtraction

Subtract 32 from 43:

$$ 43 - 32 = 11 $$

  1. Calculate the Celsius temperature

Multiply 11 by ( \frac{5}{9} ):

$$ C = \frac{5}{9} \times 11 = \frac{55}{9} \approx 6.11 $$

The temperature in Celsius is approximately 6.11°C

More Information

Converting Fahrenheit to Celsius helps in understanding temperatures in terms of the Celsius scale, which is commonly used in most parts of the world.

Tips

A common mistake is to forget to subtract 32 before multiplying by ( \frac{5}{9} ) when converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius.
