You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given c = 5/9(f-32), solve for f. 
 c=5/9(f-32) can also be written as c = 5(f - 32)/9.
 Multiply each side by 9.
 That gives us 9c = 5(f - 32).
 Apply distributive rule on the right side.
 9c = 5f - 160
 Add 160 to the left side.
 9c + 160 = 5f
 Lastly, divide both sides 5.
 (9c + 160)/5 = f
