How to convert degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit

0 °C = 32 °F. Water freezes at 0 °C (32 °F) and boils at 100 °C (212 °F) at sea level.

Formula: °F = °C × 9/5 + 32

Useful next steps

How Celsius to fahrenheit works

This converter changes a temperature in degrees Celsius into degrees Fahrenheit as you type, using the exact formula °F = °C × 9/5 + 32. It accepts decimals, negative values and scientific notation such as 1e3, and rounds the answer to 12 significant digits. It converts absolute temperatures only, so it is not suitable for temperature differences, and values below absolute zero (−273.15 °C) are rejected. The conversion runs in your browser.

Before you start

Check whether your number is an actual temperature or a change in temperature. Use a period as the decimal point, since a comma such as 1,5 is not accepted.

A worked example

Entering 37 °C returns 98.6 °F, and 20 °C returns 68 °F. Entering −40 returns −40, the one point where both scales match.

Common questions

What is the formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?

Multiply the Celsius temperature by 9/5 (or 1.8) and add 32. For example, 25 °C × 1.8 = 45, and 45 + 32 = 77 °F. To go the other way, subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit value and multiply by 5/9.

Is there a quick way to estimate Fahrenheit in my head?

Double the Celsius value and add 30. That gives 70 °F for 20 °C, close to the exact 68 °F. The shortcut drifts further off at very hot or very cold temperatures, so use the exact formula or this converter when precision matters, such as for cooking or medical readings.

How do I convert a temperature change, not a temperature?

Do not add 32. A change of 1 °C equals a change of 1.8 °F, so a 10 °C rise is an 18 °F rise. This tool always adds the 32 degree offset, so entering 10 here would give 50 °F, which is wrong for a difference.

At what temperature are Celsius and Fahrenheit the same?

At −40. Entering −40 °C in this converter returns exactly −40 °F. Above that point the Fahrenheit number is always higher than the Celsius number, and below it the Fahrenheit number is lower.

What is normal body temperature in Fahrenheit?

37 °C is commonly quoted as normal body temperature, and this converter shows it as exactly 98.6 °F. Healthy body temperature varies a little from person to person and through the day, so treat 98.6 °F as a reference point rather than a strict rule.
