This is super convoluted to some people, but its the easiest way for my weird American brain to convert it on the fly:
- 2*°C=ans~1~
- ans~1~—(0.1*ans~1~)=ans~2~
- ans~2~—32=°F
The conversion most sources give you is:
(9/5)*°C—32=°F
But I find it easier to break it down into those 3 simple steps. If you're the kind of person who calculates 20% of X in two steps [20%*X=(0.1X)*2], you might also like my weird method of converting °C to °F.
How else are you expected to ash your cigarette without causing a fire hazard? Crank the window down?? And exactly how am I supposed to accomplish that when I have my hands juggling 4 tasks already, genius?
My smoking hand is holding my cig and shifting gears, and my driving hand is steering the car and holding my beer upright without spilling. There's kids in the car, so I need to focus on the task of driving for their safety!
