Above is the equation used for converting Celsius to Fahrenheit.
Below is an altered version which can be used to find a value of which is equivalent to in degrees Fahrenheit.
There are infinitely many values of which satisfy the equation. Find the value of that doesn't.

With a little bit of rearrangement we get:
C = ( 5 9 − n ) − 3 2
The graph of C vs n is a hyperbola. Indeed there are infinitely many pairs ( C , n ) satisfying the given equation. Now we need to look for the values of n for which the curve is not defined, i.e., the asymptote. Here the asymptote is the line n = 5 9 .
Thus, n = 1 . 8 is the value of n not satisfying given equation.
