Answer:

30°C

Step-by-step explanation:

The following expression can be used to convert Farenheit degrees (°F) to Celsius degrees (°C).

°C = 5 . (°F - 32) / 9

If the temperature in Centerville is 86°F, we can replace this value in the previous expression to find its value in the Celsius scale.

°C = 5 . (°F - 32) / 9

°C = 5 . (86 - 32) / 9

°C = 5 . (54) / 9

°C = 270 / 9

°C = 30°C
