Celsius to Fahrenheit

Celsius to Fahrenheit is our article explaining the temperature conversion.

Whereas most countries in the world measure the temperature in degrees Celsius, the scale and unit Fahrenheit is mainly used in the Unites States and its associated territories.

Here we tell you all you want to know about °C to °F.

If you have been looking for centigrade to Fahrenheit, then you are right here, too.

The symbols for these temperature units named after the Swede Anders Celsius (1701–1744) and the German Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686–1736), are °C and °F, respectively.

Celsius to Fahrenheit Formula

The conversion formula is:

[°F] = ([°C] x 9 ⁄ 5) + 32

This can also be written as °F = (°C × 1.8) + 32.

In the next section you can find an example about how to change the temperature unit.

How to Convert the Temperature from °C to °F?

Assumed you have 100 centigrades, to change 100° in C to F multiply 100 by 1.8, then add 32 to 180 to obtain 212 degrees Fahrenheit.

Much easier than doing the math yourself is using our temperature converter above.

Here you can find all about Fahrenheit to Celsius, including a calculator.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you convert C to F easy?

Double it plus 30

Is For C more accurate?

The accuracy of the scales are the same, but if you intend to express the temperature in whole numbers you can do so more precisely in Fahrenheit, because the former’s integer divisions are smaller

How do you convert C to F without a calculator?

°F = 2 × °C + 30

How do you calculate F to C?

[°C] = ([°F] − 32) x 5 ⁄ 9

What is the Fahrenheit scale thermometer divided into?

The Fahrenheit scale is divided into 180 equal parts between the ice point 32 ⁰F and the boiling point 212 ⁰F

Additional Information

Note that centigrade is an alternative term for degrees C, and that it is recommended that the numerical value separated by a space precedes the unit.

E.g 12 °C and not 12° C or 12 ° F.

Recurrent temperature conversions in this category include, for instance:

Either temperature scale is normally used to determine the human body temperature, in contrast to Kelvin, for example.

What is Temperature?

Temperature is the mean kinetic energy of the atoms or molecules in an object.
