To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula:

[ C = frac{5}{9} times (F – 32) ]

where ( F ) is the temperature in Fahrenheit.

Using your value of 50 degrees Fahrenheit:

1. Subtract 32 from 50: ( 50 – 32 = 18 )
2. Multiply by ( frac{5}{9} ): ( frac{5}{9} times 18 = 10 )

So, 50 degrees Fahrenheit is approximately 10 degrees Celsius.

The correct answer is 10 degrees Celsius.
