Temperature Conversion Formula
Temperature conversion formulas are the formulas that are used to convert various types of units of temperature to one another.
Fahrenheit to Celsius
Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion is achieved by the formula,
(°F – 32) × 5/9 = °C
Celsius to Fahrenheit
Celsius to Fahrenheit conversion is achieved by the formula,
(°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F
Celsius to Kelvin
Celsius to Kelvin conversion is achieved by the formula,
K = °C + 273

Example on Temperature Conversion
Example 1: Convert 20 °C to K
Solution:
We know that,
- K = °C + 273
20 °C = 20 + 273 K = 293 K
Example 2: Convert -32°C to °F
Solution:
We know that,
- (°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F
°F = (-32 × 9/5) + 32 = -25.6 °F
Example 3: Convert 100 °C to K
Solution:
We know that,
- K = °C + 273
100 °C = 100 + 273 K = 373 K
Example 4: At what temperature Celsius scale is equal to the Fahrenheit scale?
Solution:
We know that,
- (°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F
Given, C = F
(C × 9/5) + 32 = C
9C = 5C – 160
4C = -160
C = -40
°C = °F = -40
