A kitten's normal body temperature is 102ºF. Express this temperature in ºC.
(F-32)*5/9 = C
To express the temperature in Celsius (°C) when given the temperature in Fahrenheit (°F), you can use the formula:
°C = (°F - 32) * 5/9
Now let's calculate the temperature in degrees Celsius using this formula.
Substituting the given temperature of 102°F into the formula:
°C = (102 - 32) * 5/9
Simplifying the equation:
°C = 70 * 5/9
Calculating the multiplication:
°C = 350/9
Dividing 350 by 9:
°C ≈ 38.89
Therefore, a kitten's normal body temperature of 102°F is approximately 38.89°C.
