Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?
To change Celsius to Fahrenheit, use this: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. For example, to change 20°C to Fahrenheit, do this: (20 × 9/5) + 32 = 68°F. Our calculator will do this for you, giving quick and clear results.
What is the difference between the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales?
The Celsius scale is based on the freezing point of water, which is 0°C, and its boiling point, which is 100°C, at standard atmospheric pressure. For Fahrenheit, water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F. The Celsius scale is more popular around the world, while Fahrenheit is mostly used in the United States.
Why do we need both Celsius and Fahrenheit scales?
Both scales have different uses and are liked in different places. Celsius is used in most countries and for science. Fahrenheit is popular in the United States for weather reports and daily temperature checks.
Is there a simple way to estimate the change without using a calculator?
For a quick estimate, you can use this simple trick: double the Celsius number and add 30 to find a rough Fahrenheit temperature. For example, 20°C would be (20 × 2) + 30 = 70°F. This method isn’t perfect, but it can help you with fast mental math.
At what temperature do Celsius and Fahrenheit equal each other?
Celsius and Fahrenheit are the same at -40 degrees. This means -40°C is equal to -40°F. It is the only point where both scales show the same number.
