Bell-Ringer

• What is the formula for converting a Celsius
  temperature to Fahrenheit?
• F (C 9/5) 32

5
Bell-Ringer

• What are the seven steps in the algorithm to
  convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?
• Start
• Input - Get Celsius temperature
• Process - Multiply times 9
• Process - Divide by 5
• Process - Add 32
• Output - Display Fahrenheit temperature
• End
