If you want to convert 40 degrees
Celsius
 to degrees
Fahrenheit
, you can do it
this way:
40°C

  • 9/5 + 32 = 104°F

    The correct result is B. 104°F.

Other options:

A72°F = 22.2°C
C54°F = 12.2°C
D22°F = -5.56°C

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Temperature in degree Fahrenheit is, \(104 ^{\circ}F\)

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the temperature conversion formula from  \(^{\circ}C\) to
\(^{\circ}F\) as follows:

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

where

F is the Fahrenheit in degree,

C is the Celsius in degree.

Given the statement: If a thermometer indicates 40 degrees Celsius.

⇒\(C = 40^{\circ}\)

Substitute this value in above formula to solve for F;

\(F =\frac{9}{5}(40)+32\)

\(F =72+32\)

Simplify:

F = 104 degree.

therefore, the temperature in degree Fahrenheit is, \(104 ^{\circ}F\)
