Temperature Conversion
Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit
When converting Celsius to Fahrenheit, it helps to know that, at standard atmosphere, on the Celsius scale, water freezes at 0 degrees, equal to 32 degrees Fahrenheit; and water boils at 100 C (or 212 F).
To convert Celsius temperatures into Fahrenheit:
1. Multiply the Celsius temperature by 9.
2. Divide the answer by 5.
3. Add 32.
Here's the equation:
F = (9/5) C + 32

Convert Fahrenheit to Celsius
To convert Fahrenheit temperatures into Celsius (the operations are opposite, in reverse order):
1. Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature.
2. Multiply the answer by 5.
3. Divide the answer by 9.
Here's the equation:
C = (F-32) x (5/9)
Here is an automatic F-to-C converter.
