you can only divide, multiply or give multiples of Kelvin (absolute Celsius) or Rankine (absolute Fahrenheit) Temperatures:
20 degrees Fahrenheit = 266 kelvin twice as cold is half that, so: 133 kelvin = -219 degrees Fahrenheit
as to Anchorage: 45 degrees Fahrenheit = 280 kelvin so they are 280/266 or 5.3% warmer than us
