Specification

• Write a Java program in the file Fahrenheit.java that converts a temperature from celsius to fahrenheit. The formula for this conversion is as follows: Take the temperature in celsius, multiply it by 9, divide the result by 5, and add 32. The equation can be expressed as:

• You will write your solution in a function called calculateFahrenheit(double celsius), right below the place where it says: YOUR CODE HERE.

• When the function call calculateFahrenheit(100) is executed, the output of the program should be: 212.0

Hints

• Recall that Java performs integer division. You may have to multiply one of the constants in the equation by 1.0 to obtain the correct answer.
