<p>initial temperature of the sample is <span>61.7</span><img src="http://session.masteringphysics.com/render?units=%5E%5Ccirc+F" alt="^circ F" align="middle" />, what is its temperature in degrees Fahrenheit when the desired&#160;temperature increase has been achieved?</p>

Explanation / Answer

celcius to fahrenheit conversion formula:

°C x 9/5 + 32 = °F

44.60 C =112.280F
