Understand the Problem

The question is asking us to convert a temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius. The high-level approach involves applying the formula for temperature conversion: C = (F - 32) × 5/9.

Answer

73.89°C
Answer for screen readers

The final temperature in Celsius is approximately 73.89°C

Steps to Solve

  1. Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature (165°F) We start by subtracting 32 from the given temperature in Fahrenheit.

    $$165 - 32 = 133$$

    1. Multiply the result by 5/9 After obtaining the difference, we need to multiply it by the fraction 5/9 to convert it to Celsius.

    $$133 \times \frac{5}{9} = 73.89$$

    1. Conclusion The final temperature in Celsius is approximately 73.89°C.

The final temperature in Celsius is approximately 73.89°C

More Information

Did you know? The Celsius scale is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701–1744), who developed a similar temperature scale.

Tips
