F = Farenheit temperature scale
China use C, the Celcius temperature scale
9*C/5 = F-32
hopefully you were looking for a literal explanation |

But thanks for confirming that China use C. There are weird expats thinking that China is using both. |

just remember that 0C = 32F, 10C = 50F, and 25C = 77F, then u know if it's cold, warm or hot. |

If she screams its cold, if she smiles its warm, if she scowls its hot. |

Shouldn't it be:
Then you know when it's freezing, bearable, or kinda hot?
Guess it depends where you come from  |
