How would you convert a temperature of 74 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius?

37.2 C
21.3 C
23.3 C
25.9 C

The correct answer is: 23.3 C

To convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula (F - 32) x 5/9 = C. Plugging 74 in for F results in (74-32) x 5/9 = 23.3 C. Option A, 37.2 C, is incorrect because that is the result of using the conversion formula for Celsius to Fahrenheit instead. Option B, 21.3 C, is too low, and therefore not the correct converted temperature. Option D, 25.9 C, is also close to the correct answer, but slightly higher, making it incorrect. Option C, 23.3 C, is the only answer that is both close to the correct converted temperature and follows the conversion formula correctly.
