To convert 20°C to Fahrenheit using the formula \( F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32 \):
1. Substitute \( C = 20 \) into the formula:
\[
F = \frac{9}{5}(20) + 32
\]
2. Calculate \( \frac{9}{5} \times 20 \):
\[
\frac{9 \times 20}{5} = \frac{180}{5} = 36
\]
3. Add 32 to the result:
\[
F = 36 + 32 = 68
\]
So, the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is \( \mathbf{68} \).
