F = Celsius x 9/5 +32
C = Fahrenheit -32( 5)/9
ex: 50 F to C
50-32=18(5)=90/9=10
10 C to F
10(9)=90/5=18+32=50

To convert Farenheit to Celsius, minus 32 from the temp and divide by 1.8. Celsius to Farenheit is multiply by 1.8, then add 32.
It has to be exactly as I've written, otherwise the conversion doesn't work (mix the formula up and you get ridiculous figures).

The number in Fahrenheit minus 31, and divided by 2. For example: Fahrenheit 88 is (88-31)/2 = 28.5

Using the old Bob and Doug method, double it and add thirty: 37 degrees C, doubled would be 74, +30 is 104. Hmmm... close to 98.6 but just not quite.
Other than that, go to google and type in "87 degrees Fahrenheit in Celcius" and it will give you the answer.

C/5=(F-32)/9
F=9/5C+32
1C=33.8019 F
