\"f=%289%2F5%29C%2B32\" Start with the given equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"98.6=%289%2F5%29C%2B32\" Plug in \"f=98.6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"98.6-32=%289%2F5%29C\" Subtract 32 from both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"66.6=%289%2F5%29C\" Subtract.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"66.6%285%2F9%29=cross%28%285%2F9%29%289%2F5%29%29C\" Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of \"9%2F5\" (which is \"5%2F9\")\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"37=C\" Multiply\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the answer is \"C=37\" which means that if the temperature is 98.6 degrees F, then the temperature is 37 degrees Celsius
