Conversion Calculators

Temperature Converter

Convert temperatures between Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin and Rankine. Unlike most units, temperature scales have different zero points, so conversion uses a formula rather than a single factor.

37 °C =98.6 °F
Step-by-step working
  1. Convert °C to kelvin, then to °F (non-linear scale)
  2. Result: 98.6 °F

How to use the Temperature Converter

  1. Enter the value to convert.
  2. Choose the unit you have and the unit you want.
  3. Press Convert. The table below shows the value in every unit.

Formula

  • °F = °C × 9/5 + 32
  • °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9
  • K = °C + 273.15
  • °R = K × 9/5

Examples

  • 37 °C (body temperature) = 98.6 °F.
  • 350 °F (oven) = 176.67 °C.
  • −40 °C = −40 °F: the two scales meet there.

Frequently asked questions
