Which temperature is equivalent to 5°F?

5°F is equivalent to approximately -15°C when converted using the formula for temperature conversion between Fahrenheit and Celsius. The conversion formula is:

°C = (°F - 32) × 5/9.

By substituting 5 for °F, the calculation becomes:

°C = (5 - 32) × 5/9

°C = (-27) × 5/9

°C = -135/9

°C ≈ -15°C.

This calculation shows how the two temperature scales relate to each other and confirms that -15°C accurately corresponds to 5°F.
