Frequently Asked Questions

How do you convert Fahrenheit to Celsius?

To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature, then multiply by 5/9. The formula is: °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9. For example, 68°F = (68-32) × 5/9 = 20°C.

What is the formula for Celsius to Fahrenheit?

To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, multiply the Celsius temperature by 9/5, then add 32. The formula is: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. For example, 25°C = (25 × 9/5) + 32 = 77°F.

How do you convert to Kelvin?

To convert Celsius to Kelvin, add 273.15. To convert Fahrenheit to Kelvin, first convert to Celsius, then add 273.15. The formulas are: K = °C + 273.15 or K = (°F - 32) × 5/9 + 273.15.

What are common temperature reference points?

Water freezes at 32°F/0°C/273.15K and boils at 212°F/100°C/373.15K. Human body temperature is 98.6°F/37°C/310.15K. Room temperature is typically 68-72°F/20-22°C/293-295K.
