About converting degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit
Converting Celsius to Fahrenheit is the classic temperature conversion for anyone reading weather, cooking, or health figures across the US and the rest of the world. Unlike most conversions it is not a simple multiplication — you scale by 9/5 and then add 32.
Method & sources
Conversions use exact legal definitions rather than rounded approximations: 1 inch = 2.54 cm and 1 pound = 0.45359237 kg (fixed by the 1959 international yard and pound agreement), 1 mile = 1.609344 km, and 1 US liquid gallon = 3.785411784 litres. Temperatures convert with °F = °C × 9⁄5 + 32 and K = °C + 273.15. Results are rounded only for display.
