GPT-4o mini · Answer

To convert 20°C to degrees Fahrenheit using the formula \( F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32 \):

Substitute \( C = 20 \) into the formula:

\[ F = \frac{9}{5} \times 20 + 32 \]
Calculate \( \frac{9}{5} \times 20 \):

\[ \frac{9 \times 20}{5} = \frac{180}{5} = 36 \]
Now add 32 to the result:

\[ F = 36 + 32 = 68 \]

Thus, the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is \( \boxed{68} \).
