16 degC = 61 deg F
So, from the list, it's going to be a few degrees above 61 deg F.

Good way to go

Always a useful sanity check, if nothing else.

[@jaronmiller1665]

I usually approximate C to F as C x 2 + 30 when I'm trying to understand C as an American

[@ColfaxMath]

Good way to go

Always loved Mathematics in school and still like them today! Love the explanation! :)

[@ColfaxMath]

Thank you

[@ExTrAParham]

Why are you making this seem so easy 😂😂😂

[@ColfaxMath]

It's not that bad with practice

You are the best. ❤

Thank you

Still doesn't explain why small rocks don't float.

[@ColfaxMath]

Is that a density question

[@Durermac]

What if you have a negative odd number?

[@ColfaxMath]

Still plug it the same way. If it were odd, it wouldn't cancel so you would have a fraction. If it were a negative less than 32, the overall number would stay positive

[@Durermac]

@@ColfaxMath That was fast, lol. Thank you for your answer.

[@gabbleratchet1890]

@@Durermac Just multiply the Celsius value by 1.8 and add 32.

On number 12 i would like to know how does .60 -1 equals .4 I’m a little confused there

[@ColfaxMath]

.6 -1 Should equal -.4

[@BintaManjang-rd5lc]

68 degrees

[@ColfaxMath]

Yes, good

[@captainvaughn5692]

i mean, the internet is faster :D

[@ColfaxMath]

Yes it is

[@lordlego1510]

Which grade is this?

[@ColfaxMath]

No grade just how to convert C to F

[@HamnaTabuu]

Centi-grade😂

[@AR3drose]

C

[@ColfaxMath]

Good

[@1Dylan1]

Good to know the military takes dunces 😂

[@ColfaxMath]

Ok

[@VegasEdo]

Honestly don't know why people don't use 1.8 instead of 9/5th. LCD is maths worst nightmare. Lowest Common Denominator that is 🤣

[@ColfaxMath]

They usually set the problems up so that you can cancel easily using fractions. Lots of ways to do the problem, what comes to you first is usually the best

[@VegasEdo]

@@ColfaxMath I suppose it is for an aptitude test so throwing in the fraction curveball is definitely right at home. I was referring to regular day to day conversions.

[@wockhardt69]

this is nothing like the asvab

[@ColfaxMath]

What are the problems like? How do they differ from these
