32 0 F = 0 0 C  (Freeze)
212 0 F = 100 0 C  (Boil)

Subtract 32 0 from Fahrenheit then multiply results by 5/9 to get
Centigrade.

(example...  212 0 F less 32 0 = 180 .... times 5, divided by 9 = 100 C 0 -- 
boiling)

Multiply Centigrade by 9/5 then add 32 0 to get Fahrenheit.

(Example.... 100 0 C  multiplied by 9, divided by 5 =180 plus 32 0 = 212 F
... boiling )

To get the 'degree' symbol, you should be able to  'select' the 0 symbol
from this message and 'copy' it and then 'paste' that symbol into your
e-mails.

You should be able to find the symbol on your computer by opening a word
processor program and start a new page.  Then look at the top of the window
for 'Insert'.    Within that set of commands should be "Symbol".  Search
through this chart for the 0 symbol.  Click on the symbol and most programs
will insert the symbol into your new page.  Copy the symbol and paste it
into your e-mail.  Some E-mail programs will have "Insert: symbol" and
others (Like Outlook Express) will not.


To remember the Temperature conversion number, try this:

You need to make the freezing point equal so you will have to subtract 32 0
from the Fahrenheit temp. number.

Dropping the boiling point by the same number makes the boiling point 180 F
when the same point is 100 C.  So... 100 is to 180 as 10 is to 18 and then 5
is to 9.  Multiplying by 5/9 will make a (F0) number smaller and multiplying
by 9/5 will make a (C0) number larger. Adjust the results by using the 32 0
factor.
