Place the following temperatures in order from coldest to hottest: - 8°C, 10°C, - 5°F, 40°F

-5f, - 8c, 40f, 10c happy math ... ing

To solve this problem, you should first convert all temperatures to one temperature scale. I'll use the formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius.

It is C = 5/9 (F - 32), where F is the degrees Fahrenheit.

Let's start converting.

C = 5/9 (-5 - 32)

C = 5/9 (-37)

C = - 185/9

C = - 20.6°

C = 5/9 (40 - 32)

C = 5/9 (8)

C = 40/9

C = 4.4°

Now let's arrange them from least to greatest:

-20.6°C, - 8°C, 4.4°C, 10°C.

Answer:

-5°F, - 8°C, 40°F, 10°C.
