On a hilly region, water boils at

95 ° C

. The temperature expressed in Fahrenheit scale is

Options

A $100 ° F$
B $200 ° F$
C $150 ° F$
D $203 ° F$

Correct answer

D. $203 ° F$

Step-by-step solution

If the temperature of a body on Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are recorded as C and F respectively, then

\dfrac{C - 0}{100 - 0} = \dfrac{F - 32}{212 - 32}

or

\dfrac{C}{5} = \dfrac{F - 32}{9}

Here,

C = 95 ° C

∴

\dfrac{95}{5} = \dfrac{F - 32}{9}

Or

5F = 1015

∴

F = \dfrac{1015}{5} = 203 ° F
