13. Example - Oven Temperature Conversion – continued

So 70^o on the Fahrenheit scale is 21^o on the Celsius scale. We got there by finding the temperature difference between freezing (32^oF) and the Fahrenheit temperature and then dividing by 1.8 to find how many Celsius degrees are in that temperature difference.
We can write this as a formula: (^oF – 32) ÷ 1.8 = ^oC OR ^oC = (^oF – 32) ÷ 1.8
(Sometimes this formula is written as ^oC = (^oF – 32) x because each Celsius degree is of a Fahrenheit degree.)
Now to answer the original question: “What is 375^oF in ^oC?”
