This is wrong? Taking 20°C as an example. Following this formula gives 48°F when it should be 68. Could you perhaps be supposed to add 32 instead of 12?

[-] linearchaos@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it's supposed to be c * 2 + 30

Nothing can go faster than the speed of light, not even fahrenheit temperature units.

[-] linearchaos@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Nah, the speed of light in air is faster than the speed of light in peanut butter.

[-] kafa@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

yes, but that's speed of light

I mean you're not wrong Walter.

The concept is that it's a formula you can do in your head most people aren't going to spend a minute trying to work out 9/5 in their head

I mean.. That's just like... Your opinion man.

They're out of their element.

That comment REALLY tied the thread together, Did It Not?

[-] PhreakyByNature@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

It really did Dude.

[-] Today@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thats a very close approximate and what i use when it's numbers i have to think about for 5/9 and 9/5.

[-] ips@infosec.pub 3 points 1 year ago

Adding 32 is correct.
