Fast and accurate conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius.
Fast and accurate conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius.
To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32 from the temperature and then multiply by 5/9. The formula is: °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9. For example, 68°F = (68 - 32) × 5/9 = 20°C.
The formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is: °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9. This converts the Fahrenheit temperature to its Celsius equivalent by first subtracting the freezing point difference and then scaling by the ratio between the scales.
-40 degrees is the same temperature in both Fahrenheit and Celsius scales. You can verify this with the formula: (-40°F - 32) × 5/9 = -40°C.
To convert Celsius back to Fahrenheit, multiply the temperature by 9/5 and then add 32. The formula is: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32.
Fahrenheit is commonly used in the United States for weather and cooking, while Celsius is used internationally and for scientific purposes. Converting between them allows for accurate temperature communication across different regions and contexts.
