Quickest and easiest way to convert from celsius to fahrenheit is double the Celsius number and add 30 to it.
By no means is this calculation exact but it’s close. This conversion does NOT work for trying to figure out from km/h to mph.
20c would be 20 + 20 + 30 = 70.
Years ago on an Australian Cruise, I told to 2 older ladies from New York City this. They were having a heck of a time figuring out the conversion from c to f.
After I showed them the quick easy and “close” way to calculate the temperature I got free beers every time they saw me on the ship for the next 3 weeks… I think I cost those two gals a lot of money…
