Question 1 • Introduction to Health Science - EL3601 B

A coast guard medic arrives on the scene of a capsized boat. The medic finds a patient who has been adrift in cold water for several hours. The patient’s body temperature is 94ºF. What is the patient’s body temperature in Celsius?

Answer
A
14ºC
B
34ºC
C
70ºC
D
112ºC

Explanation

Convert Fahrenheit to Celsius using C = (F − 32) × 5/9. For 94ºF, (94 − 32) × 5/9 = 62 × 5/9 ≈ 34.4ºC, which rounds to 34ºC. The correct choice is 34ºC.
