Zero degree Fahrenheit       (          ∘        F  )  =  −  17.7778 degrees Celsius       (          ∘        C  )0 degrees Celsius       (          ∘        C  )  =  32 degrees Fahrenheit       (          ∘        F  )Degrees Fahrenheit can be converted to degree Celsius as follows,  (                 ∘        F  −  32  )  ⋅      5    9    =                 ∘        C    (      98.6          ∘        F  −  32  )      5    9    =  66.6  ⋅      5    9    =      333    9                   ∘        C  =  37                 ∘        CZero degrees Fahrenheit= 255.372KDegrees Fahrenheit can be converted to Kelvin using the equation,      (          ∘        F  −  32  )      5    9    +  273.15  =  KSo,  (  98.6                 ∘        F  −  32  )  ⋅      5    9    +  273.15  =  66.6  ⋅      5    9    +  273.15  K  =  (      333    9    )  +  273.15  K  =      37          ∘        C  +  273.15  K  =      310.15          ∘        FThe correct answer is &#039;a&#039;.
