Brain Drain!

We will start this game with easier ones.  We all know temprature is measured in degree Celsius and Fahrenheit.  Both has different method of measuring the temprature. For example boiling point of water in Celsius is 100 degree where as Fahrenheit is 212 degree and freezing point of water is Zero degree Celsius but 32 degree Fahrenheit.

Now the question is, is there any point at which both Celsius and Fahrenheit shows the same reading? In other words both shows the same number?

If your answer is yes, find the number.  If no "I am sorry baby.. skip this section".

To see the Answer scroll down:



























Answer is -40 degree at which both Celsius and Fahrenheit will show the same reading.

To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit the formula is as follows:

(Fahrenheit - 32) x 5/9 = Celsius

= (-40 - 32) x 5/9
= -72 x 5/9
= -360/9
= - 40
To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius the formula is as follows:

(Celsius x 9/5) + 32 = Fahrenheit
= (-40x9/5) + 32
= (-360/5)+32
= (-72)+32
= - 40

That's all! Wait for next post !!
