If the outside temperature is currently 22 degrees Celsius, what is it in Fahrenheit?

71.6 degrees F
70.2 degrees F
72.4 degrees F
68.0 degrees F

The correct answer is: 71.6 degrees F

To convert degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit, the formula used is: F = (C × 9/5) + 32. In this case, if we apply the given temperature of 22 degrees Celsius into the formula: 1. Multiply 22 by 9/5: 22 × 9/5 = 39.6. 2. Then add 32 to that result: 39.6 + 32 = 71.6. This calculation leads to a result of 71.6 degrees Fahrenheit, confirming that this choice is indeed accurate. Understanding the conversion formula is crucial in accurately translating temperature measurements between Celsius and Fahrenheit, especially in contexts like nursing where temperature can be a vital sign.
