To convert Celsius temperatures into Fahrenheit:

• multiply the Celsius temperature by 9
• divide the answer by 5
• add 32

     Example
Change 20 degrees Celsius to Fahrenheit:
20 times 9 is 180, 180 divided by 5 is 36, 36 plus 32 is 68 degrees Fahrenheit.

To convert Fahrenheit temperatures into Celsius:

• subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature
• divide the answer by 9
• multiply that answer by 5

     Example
Change 95 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius:
95 minus 32 is 63, 63 divided by 9 is 7, 7 times 5 is 35 degrees Celsius.
