          It's close but not exact:
          0 C = 32 F
          5 C = 41 F
          10 C = 50 F
          15 C = 59 F
          20 C = 68 F
          25 C = 77 F
          30 C = 86 F
          35 C = 95 F
          40 C = 104 F
          and so on.

          in general: degrees F = (9 *degrees C)/5 + 32
          One useful reference point: -40 C = -40 F

            Of course. But close is what you almost always want. If you’re doing a scientific experiment you’d use C natively. We need the conversion when talking to non-Americans about the weather.

              If it’s 33 out I’m going to tell Mayla it’s 0. Not 0.56.
