--hints--

convertCtoF(0) should return a number

js
assert.isNumber(convertCtoF(0));

convertCtoF(-30) should return a value of -22

js
assert.strictEqual(convertCtoF(-30), -22);

convertCtoF(-10) should return a value of 14

js
assert.strictEqual(convertCtoF(-10), 14);

convertCtoF(0) should return a value of 32

js
assert.strictEqual(convertCtoF(0), 32);

convertCtoF(20) should return a value of 68

js
assert.strictEqual(convertCtoF(20), 68);

convertCtoF(30) should return a value of 86

js
assert.strictEqual(convertCtoF(30), 86);

--seed-contents--

js
function convertCtoF(celsius) {
  let fahrenheit;
  return fahrenheit;
}

convertCtoF(30);

--solutions--

js
function convertCtoF(celsius) {
  let fahrenheit = celsius * (9 / 5) + 32;
  return fahrenheit;
}

convertCtoF(30);
