I believe you are really asking for the algebraic relationship between Celsius and Fahrenheit as formula for C and as formula for F.

You already have C=%285%2F9%29%28F-32%29.
If you know an F value, you can evaluate the C value.


Solve for F in terms of C to be able to have a formula for temperature in degree C.
%285%2F9%29%28F-32%29=C
F-32=%289%2F5%29C
highlight%28F=%289%2F5%29C%2B32%29
