to calculate Centigrade - 5/9 (F degree - 32)

The formula given already is a good one, but the easiest way for me to do the conversion is as follows:-
Degrees C to F;- Degrees C plus 40, Multiply by 9/5, subtract 40 and the answer is in degrees F
Degrees F to C:- As above, but multiply by 5/9.
As a check, 100 degrees C = 212 degrees F
