How the Celsius to Fahrenheit Converter works

Fahrenheit and Celsius have different zero points and degree sizes: water freezes at 0 °C = 32 °F and boils at 100 °C = 212 °F. Multiply by 9/5 (1.8) and add 32.

To convert celsius to fahrenheit, multiply by 9/5 (1.8) and add 32. The calculator shows the result to 6 significant figures; the conversion factor itself is exact by definition.

Quick estimate in your head: double it and add 30 (20 °C → 70 °F; exact answer 68 °F).

The formula

°F = °C × 9/5 + 32°C = (°F − 32) × 5/9

Worked example

Using the default values shown in the calculator:

Value in celsius (°C)25
  1. 25 °C × 1.8 + 32 = 77 °F.

Result:

Fahrenheit (°F)77
1 °C in °F33.8
Your number read as °F, in °C-3.88889
