Multiply by 9, divide by 5, then add 32

Step-by-step calculation for 28°C:

1. Multiply 28 by 9: 28 × 9 = 252

2. Divide by 5: 252 ÷ 5 = 50.4

3. Add 32: 50.4 + 32 = 82.4

Final result: 28°C = 82.4°F

Quick Estimation: For a rough Fahrenheit equivalent, double the Celsius temperature and add 30 (28×2=56, 56+30=86°F). This approximation gives 86°F, close to the exact 82.4°F.
