cm to inches: multiply by 4, then divide by 10.   30cm is 12" -- the diameter
of an LP.

C to F: multiply by 9, divide by 5, then add 32.   20 degrees C is 68 degrees F
-- roughly "room temperature."

These are easy to do "in the head" with a bit of practice. Most of the world
uses the metric systems; 'murcans should get used to it.
