Question

A recipe calls for an oven to be preheated to 400 °F. What is the approximate temperature of the preheated oven in Celsius degrees? °C = 5/9(°F − 32)

Answer 1

Answer:

The approximate temperature of the preheated oven is 204 °C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given temperature in Fahrenheit = 400 °F

Let us assume the given temperature in Celsius   =  C

Now, the relation between the two measure of temperature is given as:

$F =( \frac{9}{5} )C + 32$

According to the question:

$400 =( \frac{9}{5})C + 32 \\\implies ( \frac{9}{5})C = 400 - 32 = 368\\or, C = 368 \times\frac{5}{9} =204.4$

Or, C = 204.4°C

Hence, the approximate temperature of the preheated oven is 204 °C.
