Problem 2
Convert the temperature danger zone limits from Fahrenheit to Celsius. Show your calculations and final values.
A
40°F ≈ 4.4°C and 140°F = 60°C (calculation shown above).
B
40°F ≈ 10°C and 140°F ≈ 70°C since rounding to the nearest ten degrees is acceptable for food-safety guidelines when using rough estimates.
C
40°F ≈ 0°C and 140°F ≈ 100°C because those are the freezing and boiling points used for standard conversions.
D
40°F = 40°C and 140°F = 140°C because Fahrenheit and Celsius are equivalent for safety ranges in practical terms and need no conversion.
