Hm, lets see - C=(5/9)(F-32)=(5/9)(116-32)= 46.6
OUCH!
Surely you mean:
116 as degrees Fahrenheit as degrees Celsius
Admittedly though, (5 / 9) * (116 - 32) executes in a much shorter time
and is thus less likely to cause your machine to overheat. ;-)
F-32 + 10% /2 works very well, and you can do it in your head if you
can manage the subtraction.
110 F = ((110 - 32) + 10%) /2 = (78 + 7.8) / 2 = (86/2) = 43.
110F is 43C.
Close enough. Sure, it breaks for converting the temperature on the
surface of the Sun, but honestly, how often does that come up?
