Verified step by step guidance1
Recall the formula to convert Fahrenheit (F) to Celsius (C): \(C = \frac{5}{9} (F - 32)\).
Substitute the given Fahrenheit temperature (52 °F) into the formula: \(C = \frac{5}{9} (52 - 32)\).
Calculate the difference inside the parentheses: \$52 - 32$.
Multiply the result by \(\frac{5}{9}\) to find the temperature in Celsius.
Interpret the final value as the temperature in degrees Celsius corresponding to 52 °F.
