Celsius to Fahrenheit

Enter a temperature in degrees Celsius to get it in Fahrenheit, with the formula worked through, the same temperature in Kelvin, and a quick way to check it in your head.

25 °C in Fahrenheit
77 °F
Kelvin
298.15 K
  • °F = °C × 9/5 + 32: 25 × 9/5 + 32 = 77.
  • A quick check: double it and add 30 gives 80 °F, close to the exact 77 °F for everyday temperatures.

How to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit

  1. Multiply the Celsius temperature by 9, then divide by 5 (the same as multiplying by 1.8).
  2. Add 32 to get degrees Fahrenheit.

Worked example

A summer day of 30 °C: 30 × 9 ÷ 5 = 54, and 54 + 32 = 86 °F. A fridge at 4 °C is 39.2 °F, and a freezer at −18 °C is −0.4 °F.

Frequently asked questions

What is the formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?

Multiply by 9/5 (or 1.8) and add 32: °F = °C × 9/5 + 32. For 25 °C, 25 × 1.8 = 45, and 45 + 32 = 77 °F.

What is 37 °C in Fahrenheit?

98.6 °F. 37 °C is the figure usually given for normal body temperature, and 38 °C is 100.4 °F.

Is there a quick way to convert °C to °F in my head?

Double it and add 30. It's exact at 10 °C (50 °F) and stays within a few degrees for weather temperatures: 20 °C gives 70 against the exact 68 °F, 30 °C gives 90 against 86 °F. For cooking and science, use the exact formula.

At what temperature are Celsius and Fahrenheit the same?

At −40: −40 °C is exactly −40 °F. Above that, the Fahrenheit number is always the bigger one.

What is 180 °C in Fahrenheit for an oven?

356 °F. Recipes usually round it to 350 °F, and 200 °C (392 °F) to 400 °F; ovens aren't accurate to a few degrees anyway.

What are 0 °C and 100 °C in Fahrenheit?

0 °C is 32 °F, where water freezes, and 100 °C is 212 °F, where it boils at sea level. That 100-degree span is 180 degrees in Fahrenheit, which is where the 9/5 comes from.
