Question

A patient with heat stroke has a temperature of 106.0 F. What does this read on a
Celsius thermometer?

Answer 1

To convert temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32 and multiply by 0.5556 (or 5/9).

So

(106.6 - 32) x 5/9 = 41.11

106 °Fahrenheit = 41.11°Celsius (rounded to 4 digits)
