I was lecturing PPL Met last night and I was asked a question that I couldn’t answer, I wonder if you could shed any light?

If I know the outside air temperature and the relative humidity, is there any way to calculate the dew point, and hence the expected cloud base. In other words is there a mathematical relationship between % humidity, temperature and dew point?
