Question

Is a 39 Celsius body temperature higher than normal 98 Fahrenheit?? Yes or No

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to medical science, a body temperature considered normal (that is, below fever) in degrees Fahrenheit is 98ºF, while its equivalent in degrees Celsius is 36.6ºC. Therefore, a body temperature of 39ºC is higher than 98ºF, being equivalent to 102.2ºF.

This is verified by applying the conversion formula from Celcius to Fahrenheit:

(39 x 9/5) + 32 = X

39 x 1.8 + 32 = X

70.2 + 32 = X

102.2 = X
