Conversion Fahrenheit to Celsius - incorrect result and calculation

I asked huggingchat to "Convert 212 F to Celsius degrees" and the answer yesterday was different from today's answer.
Yesterday both the result and the conversion formula was wrong, today it's only the conversion formula and the calculation.

The answer should be exactly 100 C and the conversion formula is given by
T_C = (T_F-32)5/9
So with 212 F we have T_C = (212 - 32)5/9 = 1805/9 = 20
5 = 100 C
