Calculate Celsius to Fahrenheit Easily

Learn to calculate Celsius to Fahrenheit almost instantly Use this shortcut. Take the Celsius degree and double the reading and add 30 or 32 The actual formula for changing Celsius to Fahrenheit is Celsius times 1.8 32 Welcome to MooMooMath In this video I would like to discuss a shortcut for calculating celsius to Fahrenheit degrees Temperature is measured several different ways. Two common methods are Fahrenheit and Celsius. Fahrenheit sets the boiling point at 212 degrees and freezing at 32 degrees Celsius has boiling at 100 degrees and freezing at zero Im more familiar with Fahrenheit but in Science most readings are in Celsius degrees Here is a shortcut to help you estimate changing from Celsius to Fahrenheit Image the temperature is 25 degrees Celsius What is this in Fahrenheit? Here is the shortcut. Double the Celsius reading and then add 32 I like 30 instead of 32 because 30 is easier to add 25 times 2 plus 32 equals 80 Therefore 25 degrees Celsius is roughly 80 degrees Here is why this works The formula for calculating celsius to Fahrenheit is Celsius times 1.8 plus 32 1.8 is almost 2 and it is easy to double a number Lets compare our estimation to the calculation The calculation is 77 degrees Fahrenheit Our estimation was close. Remember it is an estimation and not an exact number. How about 15 degrees Celsius 15 x 2 30 plus 30 equals 60 Compare this to the real calculation 15 times 1.8 equals 57 plus 32 equals 59 degrees How about a negative number negative 5 Celsius -5 x 2 -10 plus 30 20 Fahrenheit Compare this to the actual calculation which is 23 degrees Fahrenheit Hope this shortcut helps So there you go an easy way to estimate Celsius to Fahrenheit,
