Answer 1

A is the closest to correct

Answer 2

Solution:

we are given that

A normal body temperature for a human is approximately 98° Fahrenheit.

we have been asked to find

What is this temperature in degrees Celsius?

As we know that temprature in Fahrenheit and Celsius are reltion by the formula

$(F^o-32)*5/9 = C^o$

Substitute the given values we get

$(98-32)*5/9 = C^o$

$(66)*5/9 = C^o$

$36.66667 = C^o$

Hece the required temprature is 36.7 degree Celsius.
