Fahrenheit to Celsius: C°=F°−321.8C\degree=\frac{F\degree-32}{1.8}


Celsius to Fahrenheit: F°=(C°⋅1.8)+32F\degree=\left(C\degree\cdot1.8\right)+32


Celsius to Kelvin: K=C°+273.15K=C\degree+273.15


Kelvin to Celsius: C°=K−273.15C\degree=K-273.15


Step by Step Examples


Example 1: Convert 20°C to Fahrenheit

  1. Using the formula: F°=(C°⋅1.8)+32F\degree=\left(C\degree\cdot1.8\right)+32

  2. Substitute the value: F°=(20°C⋅1.8)+32F\degree=\left(20\degree C\cdot1.8\right)+32

  3. Calculate: F°=36+32F°=36+32

  4. Result: 68°F68\degree F


Example 2: Convert 101°F to Celsius

  1. Using the formula: C°=F°−321.8C\degree=\frac{F\degree-32}{1.8}

  2. Substitute the value: C°=101°F−321.8C\degree=\frac{101\degree F-32}{1.8}

  3. Calculate: C°=691.8C\degree=\frac{69}{1.8}

  4. Result: 38.3°C38.3°C


Example 3: Convert 25°C to Kelvin

  1. Using the formula: K=C°+273.15K=C\degree+273.15

  2. Substitute the value: K=25°C+273.15K=25°C+273.15

  3. Result: 298.15298.15 KK


Example 4: Convert 303 K to Celsius

  1. Using the formula: C°=K−273.15C\degree=K-273.15

  2. Substitute the value: C°=303K−273.15C°=303K-273.15

  3. Result: 29.85°C29.85°C
