Answer

460$^{\circ}$C; 850$^{\circ}$F

Work Step by Step

T ($^{\circ}$C)=T(in K)-273.15 $=(7.3\times 10^{2}-273.15)^{\circ}C=460^{\circ}C$ ($456.85^{\circ}C$ is rounded off to two significant figures). Now, the temperature in Celcius can be converted to Fahrenheit using the formula $F=\frac{9}{5}C+32=(\frac{9}{5}\times456.85+32)^{\circ}F$ $=850^{\circ}F$
