Using the formula, we substitute the value for Fahrenheit: C=59\u00d7(88.7\u221232)C = \\frac{5}{9} \\times (88.7 &#8211; 32)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, subtract 32 from 88.7: 88.7\u221232=56.788.7 &#8211; 32 = 56.7<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, multiply 56.7 by 5: 56.7\u00d75=283.556.7 \\times 5 = 283.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, divide by 9 to get the temperature in Celsius: C=283.59=31.5C = \\frac{283.5}{9} = 31.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the temperature in Celsius is 31.5\u00b0C when rounded to three significant digits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This formula works because the Fahrenheit scale is based on a 180-degree difference between the freezing and boiling points of water, whereas the Celsius scale is based on a 100-degree difference. The conversion factor 59\\frac{5}{9} accounts for this difference, and the subtraction of 32 adjusts for the different starting points of the scales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, a temperature of 88.7\u00b0F converts to 31.5\u00b0C, rounded to three significant digits. This conversion is useful for comparing temperatures in different regions, especially when dealing with global weather data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The average outside temperature in Honolulu during August is 88.7\u00b0F.
