What is 100°C equivalent to in Fahrenheit?

To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, you can use the formula (F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32), where (F) is the temperature in Fahrenheit and (C) is the temperature in Celsius.

For 100°C, the conversion would be completed as follows:

1. Multiply the Celsius temperature by ( \frac{9}{5} ):

[

\frac{9}{5} \times 100 = 180

]

2. Then, add 32 to that result:

[

180 + 32 = 212

]

Thus, 100°C is equivalent to 212°F. This temperature is significant as it represents the boiling point of water at standard atmospheric pressure.
