The way it does it is it does this:
what is sixty four degrees f divided by two in c=
((64f)/2)in celsius
it first calculates what 64f is. if you type that into Google, you’ll get kelvin. so you get k the kelvin units.
so it gives you k/2 in Celsius. This makes sense because 0 degrees Fahrenheit is the temperature of some sort of brine of sodium something or another and water. That is pretty darn irrelevant. So google is very smart by converting its measurements to kelvin which compares it to absolute 0. great post though

For the people that didn’t get it, google is correct. When you say, what is twice 40 degrees celcius, it does not equal 80, it is twice the distance from absolute zero to 40 degrees c. Which is much muh bigger.

I am guessing it’s like a bedmas type of thing, order of operations in wich google operates.

Wow, I thought Google knows all. This is really fun. It seems now that everybody, including Google, is not perfect. Everyone has their own limitation.
