A patient has a temperature of 38.5 °c. what is the temperature in degrees fahrenheit?

Question:- A patient has a temperature of 38.5 °c. what is the temperature in degrees fahrenheit?

Answer

In order to find out the value in degrees Fahrenheit from that in degrees Celsius, you need to use F=C*9/5+32, where C is the temperature in Celsius. This formula gives you an opportunity to get the Fahrenheit-value out of it which corresponds to the initial Celsius temperature.

For the patient with a temperature of 38.5°C, the below formula can be used:

F = (38.5 * 9/5) + 32

Further, F = 69.3 + 32

F = 101.3°F

If therefore the temperature is 38.5 then the Fahrenheit conversion yields 101.3°F. The trick is by using the legitimate formula for Celsius to Fahrenheit, the F = C * 9/5 + 32 where the original Celsius temperature is inserted for C, and it can be calculated any Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit .
