🏁 Problem Explanation:

The algorithm to convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit is the temperature in Celsius times 9/5, plus 32.

You are given a variable celsius representing a temperature in Celsius. Use the variable fahrenheit already defined and apply the algorithm to assign it the corresponding temperature in Fahrenheit.

Solution ahead!

🔰 Basic Code Solution:

function convertToF(celsius) {
  // Only change code below this line
  var fahrenheit = (celsius * (9/5)) + 32;

  // Only change code above this line
  if ( typeof fahrenheit !== 'undefined' ) {
  return fahrenheit;
  } else {
    return 'fahrenheit not defined';
  }
}

// Change the inputs below to test your code
convertToF(30);

Code Explanation:

  • Declare the fahrenheit variable.
  • Make sure the proper order of arithmetic operations is followed by using parenthesis (()) when needed.
