Answer
To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula:<br /><br />\[ C = \frac{(F - 32) \times 5}{9} \]<br /><br />For 100°F, the calculation would be:<br /><br />\[ C = \frac{(100 - 32) \times 5}{9} \]<br />\[ C = \frac{68 \times 5}{9} \]<br />\[ C = \frac{340}{9} \]<br />\[ C \approx 37.78 \]<br /><br />So, the temperature in Celsius should be set to approximately 37.78°C.
