🥳 Fun trivia question. At what temperature does both Fahrenheit and Celsius equal same ambient temperature ? Rules: Only 1 guess Do not use search engine @Jeff_Hager no glide math 😛 Here is how to do the conversion To convert temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32 and multiply by .5556 (or 5/9). ---

haha, Wiz wasn’t close at all! 40C is very hot, and 40F is very cold 😛 I’m thinking this is a trick question… I don’t think they can ever be equal. I can recall learning (many many) years ago about the time we switched from F to C in Australia that a rough conversion from C to F is to double it and add 32. So given that, no matter what you have for C, F is going to be at _least_ 32 more… ---

I promise there is an answer. If you show your work you could have another guess 😇 ---

oh, wait… I’m an idiot, hahaha 🤣 Using my own formula: -32 \* 2 + 32 = -32 duh! (that’s an approximation) ---

nah, that’s not right at all 😛 You use 32, not 30. And it’s not quite half. That’s why -32 is an approximation. ---

I learned this in school, but without doing any math or cheating, I’m gonna go with -20 or -25. ---

I’m determined not to google it, but I’m confident that the answer is -32 +/- a few degrees ---
