Calculate the temperature which has same number value on Celsius and Fahrenheit scale.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let x be the temperature which has same numerical value on Celsius and Fahrenheit scale.
Since `(C )/(100)= (F - 32)/(180)`
`(x)/(100) = (x - 32)/(180)`
`9x = 5x - 160`
x = - 40
thus ` - 40^@ C = - 40^@C F`
