Fahrenheit to Celsius converter
The goal for this exercise is to make sure that you can use the material that has been covered in the previous exercises, but in a more open-ended (and therefore more ‘real-world’-like) scenario
What you need to do to prepare for this exercise:
- Re-read any section(s) that are beneficial to you - this exercise draws on your previously acquired knowledge.
In the starter project, fill in the Fahrenheit_To_Celsius.RunExercise method, so that it will

Note: when you write code for the above formula you must write it so that the “5 divided by 9” part comes first, just like it’s shown in the above formula.
You should make sure to check your work by testing your program with a variety of values. In order to that, you will probably want to give your program a Fahrenheit temperature to convert to Celsius, then use a calculator to double-check that the program is giving you the correct answer.
