How to use it
- Type the number of Celsius in the first field.
- Read the result in Fahrenheit. You can also type in the Fahrenheit field to convert the other way.
- Use the table of common values, or copy the result with one click.
How it works
Formula: °F = °C × 9/5 + 32
Temperature scales have different zero points, so the conversion adds or subtracts an offset as well as scaling. That is why doubling a temperature in Celsius does not double it in Fahrenheit.
Results use the exact definitions of both units. The page shows up to 6 decimal places; copy the value for full precision.
Examples
0 °C in °F
0 °C = 32 °F, using °F = °C × 9/5 + 32.
20 °C in °F
20 °C = 68 °F, using °F = °C × 9/5 + 32.
37 °C in °F
37 °C = 98.6 °F, using °F = °C × 9/5 + 32.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?
Use the formula °F = °C × 9/5 + 32. For example, 0 °C = 32 °F.
How do I convert Fahrenheit back to Celsius?
Use the reverse formula °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9. For example, 1 °F = -17.222222 °C.
