Convert 40 Celsius to Fahrenheit:

  1. 4.04 oF

  2. 40 oF

  3. 94 oF

  4. 104 oF

The correct answer is: 104 oF

To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, the formula used is: \[ F = \left( C \times \frac{9}{5} \right) + 32 \] Here, \( C \) represents the temperature in Celsius that you want to convert. For this question, you substitute 40 for \( C \): \[ F = \left( 40 \times \frac{9}{5} \right) + 32 \] Calculating that step-by-step: 1. Multiply \( 40 \) by \( \frac{9}{5} \), which is \( 72 \). 2. Then, add \( 32 \) to \( 72 \), which equals \( 104 \). Thus, 40 degrees Celsius converts to 104 degrees Fahrenheit. This is why the correct answer is the one that indicates 104 degrees Fahrenheit. The other options provide incorrect conversions, which do not match the calculation based on the established formula.
