Video transcript

Hi everyone for this problem, we want to convert 37°C to Kelvin. To do this. We're going to take our temperature and Celsius an AD 273. to get our temperature and Calvin. So they tell us that our temperature and°C is 37°C. So when we add 273.15, We will get a temperature of .15 Kelvin and this is going to be our final answer. This is 37°C and Kelvin. That's the end of this problem. I hope this was helpful.
