Celsius ↔ Fahrenheit

Convert temperature both directions.

How this calculator works

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

0 °C is water's freezing point (32 °F); 100 °C is boiling at sea level (212 °F).

The US, along with a handful of other countries, remains one of the few places still using Fahrenheit for everyday weather and cooking, which is why this conversion comes up so often for travel, recipes, and international news.

Example

0 °C converts to 32.00 °F.

Frequently asked questions

Easy mental conversion?

Double °C and add 30 gives a rough °F (accurate ~±3 in everyday ranges).

At what temperature are C and F the same?

−40 — this is the only point where the two scales meet.

What's normal body temperature in both scales?

37°C (98.6°F) is the traditional reference, though normal individual body temperature actually varies in a range roughly a degree Fahrenheit either side of that.
