The equation below shows the relationship between the temperature in degrees celsius, c, and degrees fahrenheit, f.

f = 9 over 5c + 32

which of the following formulas correctly solves for c?

c = 5f - 32 over 9

c = 5 f over 9 - 32

c = 9 over 5(f – 32)

c = 5 over 9(f – 32)

The initial equation is F = (9/5)C + 32. We are asked to get the formula to solve for C. So the idea here is to isolate C on the other side, where F is currently located. 

1. Subtract 32 on both sides. 
2. Divide 9/5 on both sides. 

You should get C = 5 over 9(F – 32) as your answer.
