59° F to C: Converting 59° Fahrenheit to Celsius
Methods
Converting 59° F to C Mathematically
There is a specific formula to use when converting 59° Celsius to Fahrenheit:
C
=
(
F
−
32
)
×
5
9
C = (F - 32) × \frac{5}{9}
C = ( F − 32 ) × 9 5
So, to convert 59° F to C, we will want to insert the Fahrenheit value into the equation:
C
=
(
59
−
32
)
×
5
9
C = (59 - 32) × \frac{5}{9}
C = ( 59 − 32 ) × 9 5
Then we can solve the equation:
C
=
27
×
5
9
C = 27 × \frac{5}{9}
C = 27 × 9 5
C
=
27
×
5
9
=
15
C = 27 × \frac{5}{9} = 15
C = 27 × 9 5 = 15
(If the decimal is really long, we can round to the nearest three decimal places.)
C
=
15
C = 15
C = 15
So:
59° Fahrenheit = 15° Celsius
