Answer 1

The formula to convert degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius is:

$\bf{^{\circ}C=\dfrac{5}{9}(^{\circ}F-32) \ \ \to \ \ \ Formula }$

Convert 59°F to degrees Celsius.

Add the number 59 in the formula, and solve.

        $\bf{=\dfrac{5}{9}(59-32) }$

Subtract 32 from 59.

         $\bf{=\dfrac{5}{9}(27) }$

Multiply 5 x 9 = 135, then divide 135/9 = 15.

         $\bf{=15 \ ^{\circ}C}$

Therefore 59 °F = 15 °C. The correct option is "D".
