How hot is that in the rest of the world?
Here's how you convert between the two:
T[°C] = (T[°F] - 32)* 5/9
32°F is 0°C which is why you need the 32 in there. For the fraction I always just try to think about whether Celsius or Fahrenheit is bigger. Accordingly, I'll need a number smaller or larger than one.
edit:
Aight I got the fraction wrong, which kinda proves that it's useless to remember lmao.
The easy way to remember the multiplier is that there's exactly 180 degrees between boiling and freezing in Fahrenheit, and 100 in Celsius. Just use 1.8 instead of a fraction.
I find it easier to do mental arithmetic with the fraction (and I didn't know the boiling point of water in Fahrenheit). But thanks anyways!
