the formuls to convert kelvin to fahrenheit is:
F = 9/5 * (K - 273.15) + 32
to solve this for kelvin, do the following:
start with F = 9/5 * (K - 273.15) + 32.
subtract 32 from both sides of the equation to get:
F - 32 = 9/5 * (K - 273.15)
multiply both sides of the equation by 5/9 to get:
5/9 * (F - 32) = K - 273.15
add 273.15 to both sides of this equation to get:
5/9 * (F - 32) + 273.15 = K
so, if your temperature is 240 degrees fahrenheit, then:
K = 5/9 * (240 - 32) + 273.15.
solve for K to get K = 388.7055556.
if this is correct, you should be able to solve for fahrenheit and get 240 degrees.
start with F = 9/5 * (K - 273.15) + 32.
replace K with 388.70555556 to get:
F = 9/5 * (388.70555556 - 273.15) + 32.
solve for F to get F = 240.
it works.
your equation to find K from F is good.
