The final answer is 122°F

Steps to Solve

  1. Identify the Celsius temperature

We are given that the temperature is 50°C.

  1. Use the conversion formula

The formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit is: $ F = (C \times \frac{9}{5}) + 32 $

  1. Plug in the Celsius temperature

Replace $C$ with 50 in the formula: $$ F = (50 \times \frac{9}{5}) + 32 $$

  1. Perform the multiplication

Calculate $50 \times \frac{9}{5}$: $$ F = 90 + 32 $$

  1. Perform the addition

Complete the calculation: $$ F = 122 $$

The final answer is 122°F

More Information

The Fahrenheit scale is named after German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, who proposed it in 1724.

Tips

A common mistake is to forget to add the 32 after multiplying by 9/5. Make sure to follow the order of operations in the formula.
