23° F to C: Converting 23° Fahrenheit to Celsius
Methods
Converting 23° F to C Mathematically
There is a specific formula to use when converting 23° Celsius to Fahrenheit:
C
=
(
F
−
32
)
×
5
9
C = (F - 32) × \frac{5}{9}
C = ( F − 32 ) × 9 5
So, to convert 23° F to C, we will want to insert the Fahrenheit value into the equation:
C
=
(
23
−
32
)
×
5
9
C = (23 - 32) × \frac{5}{9}
C = ( 23 − 32 ) × 9 5
Then we can solve the equation:
C
=
−
9
×
5
9
C = -9 × \frac{5}{9}
C = − 9 × 9 5
C
=
−
9
×
5
9
=
−
5
C = -9 × \frac{5}{9} = -5
C = − 9 × 9 5 = − 5
(If the decimal is really long, we can round to the nearest three decimal places.)
C
=
−
5
C = -5
C = − 5
So:
23° Fahrenheit = -5° Celsius
