Convert to Celsius to Fahrenheit issue

Challenge Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit has an issue. User Agent is: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_10_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2987.133 Safari/537.36. Please describe how to reproduce this issue, and include links to screenshots if possible.

My code:

function convertToF(celsius) {
  var fahrenheit;
  // Only change code below this line
  celsius += 9/5* + 32;
  fahrenheit -=32* 5/9 ; 
  // Only change code above this line
  return fahrenheit; 
}

// Change the inputs below to test your code
convertToF(30);

Maybe this will help, maybe not…

One sentence needs to be converted into one line of code: Fahrenheit is Celsius times 9/5, plus 32.

It’s barely hard enough to call it algebra, more like basic math.

When you’re learning JS, you have to build up your ability to think logically. It takes a lot of study and time to solve the JS algorithms. If you’re not finding the JS Help Room helpful, you can try asking on the forum or just continue to study it on your own.

@SusieTech thanks for the issue. As you found in another issue https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp/issues/14143, this challenge has been questioned many a time before and has been moved to another section due to its sudden introduction of multiple topics. So I’ll be closing this issue as its been resolved in our development code.

GitHub issues are more for noticing bugs, rather than for coding help. For help, you can view our full list of official chatrooms for help and also the forum. Both of which can be useful for beginners. The chat rooms can be helpful for somewhat real-time feedback, while the forums allow more long, threaded discussions. Hang in there! 👍 It is a difficult path to go on, but rewarding when you keep at it. Feel free to tag me in the chat rooms if you have any questions. Others there are more than willing to help as well. Happy coding!
