Then you must multiply by 5/9 and subtract 32.

The conversion formula provided by others is a good place to start. You should have had no problem finding a way to convert one to the other by typing your question into Google or any other search engine.
There is one point I must make, however. Responder, saroor_e… is very very wrong when he states that all you need to do is "subtract 32" from any fahrenheit reading to obtain a celsius reading. Fifty degrees fahrenheit is 10C, not the 18C that would result from merely subtracting 32 from 50.

Then you need to convert. There are standard conversion tables so that you need not do the calcualtion each time. Get one of them. If you need to convert,
(F - 32) X 5 / 9 = C
For example 92 F means 92-32 = 60 X 5/9 = 300 / 9 = 33.3 C

Most of the weather websites list the temperatures in both F and C. See the reference as an example.

take the F temp and punch it into this equation C=5/9(F-32) C being degree in celciuand F being degrees in Fahrenheit

C =(5/9)(F-32)
F=(9/5)C + 32
F being Fahrenheit and C being Celsius

here is a list of conversions

its verY simple Equation
Temperature in Fahrenheit = 9/5 * Temperature in Celsius + 32
see its any easy equation ... Tf = 9/5 Tc + 32

The simplest thing is to memorize a few temperatures, and then interpolate to get the ones you want. For example, I often use 68F = 20C, 77F = 25C, and 32F = 0C. (If you want a cute one, 98.6F = 37C exactly.)
Every time you go up or down 9 degrees of F temperature, you go up or down 5 degrees of C temperature. Suppose on a hot day it hits 100F. What's that in C? If you know 77F = 25C, then you go up 23 degrees of F. That's about 2.5 times 9. So then go up from 25C by 2.5 times 5 = 12.5. That's 37.5C.

just consider if you got a temperature in fahrenhiet,
then the only thing what you have to do is substract the fahrenhiet temperature by 32
take for instance the temp is 32degree fahrenhiet
so, 32-32=0 degree celsius will be its equivalent temperature

What are you asking? How to convert one to the other? Where to look for a handy chart? Where's a good place to live? Which is superior to the other? Which link to click in your weather website?
