Celsius to Fahrenheit formula

°F = (°C × 9/5) + 32

Example: 25 °C × conversion = 77 °F.

Quick mental estimate: double the Celsius number and add 30. For 20 °C that gives 70 °F (exact: 68 °F). It is close enough for weather.

About Celsius and Fahrenheit

The Celsius scale sets water freezing at 0 °C and boiling at 100 °C at sea level pressure. The Fahrenheit scale, still used in the United States for weather, cooking and body temperature, puts the same points at 32 °F and 212 °F. That gives 180 Fahrenheit degrees for every 100 Celsius degrees, which is where the 9/5 factor comes from.

Common uses

  • Weather forecasts and travel abroad (most of the world reports Celsius).
  • Oven and recipe temperatures from international cookbooks.
  • Body temperature and medical readings.
