A faulty thermometer reads `5^@ C` melting ice and `99^@ C` in steam. Find the correct temperature in .^(@) F` when this faulty thermometer reads `52^@ C`.

Answer» Correct Answer - A::B
`(T_C)/(52 - 5)= (100)/(99 - 5)`
`:. T_C = 50^@ C`
Now, using the equation, `(T_C -0)/(100) = (T_F - 32)/(180)`
Putting `T_C = 50^@ C`, we get `T_F = 122^@ F`.
