The same reason a dog licks his own balls?
Well if this is a serious inquiry, to convert C to F, you just multiply by 9/5 and add 32.
Merry Christmas. It is 1am Christmas morning. The forecast here for tomorrow (edit: today, I guess?) is 33C. 33*9 = 297, divided by 5 is roughly 59.5, add 32 is 91.5F.

Hard to tell what level that post is on.
So itās a nice cool Xmas for you compared to last week anyway.
Very hard to tell, I took wookies as a reference to the math/maths post earlier and the reply as either level 1 or level 3. Who knows.
Of course it was and of course Wookie can convert C to F and almost of course ChrisV knows that. So, itās hard to tell what level Chris is on there. Much to my shame, itās pretty much always easy to tell what level Iām on.

Iām not really into this stuff but I think a level post just states the formula, otherwise itās levelling itself? Maybe? Here to learn about the important things in life.
Initially Wookie was joking about math vs maths, but Chris is doing some pro-grade leveling.

I think weāre both too old to be confident about this kind of stuff. Wookie was obviously joking. Maybe thatās not obvious to Chris because he doesnāt really know what Americans do or do not know*, but Chrisā post looks serious ā but maybe itās not?
*I have no doubt that most Americans couldnāt do the conversion, but obviously Wookie can and it would be obvious even if you didnāt know that he has a science PhD. (I think he does)

It takes two maths to convert C to F: first multiplication and secondly addition. It only takes one math to go from C to K.
That a microbet post can almost always be taken at face value is something I think we can all be grateful for.
Unlessā¦!

I can almost guarantee none of the American users here, myself included, knew about this division trick.
Stupid measurement units for life.
2.54 cm per inch is what I remember.
I measure distances up to like 100ā in inches. It makes it easy to divide roof length sizes into solar panel length sizes and Iām just used to like 350" (8 solar panel widths) or whatnot.

(187 cm)(1 in/2.54 cm)(1 ft/12 in)= 6.14 ft

Calories are a metric unit, just not SI.

Strangely I actually noticed that while on dating apps. It seemed every third profile said something like āgemini swipe leftā or used their sign in the first few words of describing themselves. Needless to say, it was an immediate ānoā from me, dawg.
