The temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is equal to 32 more than 9/5 times the temperature in degrees Celsius. One day the high temp. was 95 degrees Fahrenheit. What was the high temp. in degrees celsius?

I did 32+(9/5*35)
32+63=95
so my answer is 35 degrees celcius, Is this correct?
Thanks for your help

How did you get the 35

Yes, that's correct.

To solve this problem correctly, let's go step by step:

First, let's set up the given equation:

Temperature in Fahrenheit = 32 + (9/5) × Temperature in Celsius

We are given that the temperature in Fahrenheit is 95 degrees. Plugging this value into the equation, we get:

95 = 32 + (9/5) × Temperature in Celsius

Next, let's isolate the term with the temperature in Celsius:

95 - 32 = (9/5) × Temperature in Celsius

63 = (9/5) × Temperature in Celsius

To find the temperature in Celsius, we need to isolate it. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by (9/5):

63 / (9/5) = Temperature in Celsius

To divide by a fraction, we can multiply by its reciprocal:

63 × (5/9) = Temperature in Celsius

The fraction (5/9) is the conversion factor from Fahrenheit to Celsius. Evaluating this expression:

Temperature in Celsius = (63 × 5) / 9

Temperature in Celsius ≈ 35 degrees

So, the high temperature in degrees Celsius is approximately 35 degrees. Therefore, your answer of 35 degrees Celsius is correct!
