Extra Credit

Multiplication Game

Practice your multiplication table while having fun!

Converting temperature

Practice converting from the following Celsius temperatures into Fahrenheit:

• 100°


• 20°


• 0°


• 17°


• 3°


• 37°

Use the formula: F = (9/5)C+32°

For example, to convert a Celsius temperature of 100 into degrees Fahrenheit, first multiply the Celsius temperature by nine-fifths to get 180. Then add 32 to 180 and get 212°F.

You can check your answers with the conversion table all the way at the bottom of the page. Try making up your own examples and solving them as well.
