How to convert temperature step by stem

Answer 1

How to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit

0 degrees Celsius is equal to 32 degrees Fahrenheit:

0 °C = 32 °F

The temperature T in degrees Fahrenheit (°F) is equal to the temperature T in degrees Celsius (°C) times 9/5 plus 32:

T_(°F) = T_(°C) × 9/5 + 32

or

T_(°F) = T_(°C) × 1.8 + 32

Example

Convert 20 degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit:

T_(°F) = 20°C × 9/5 + 32 = 68 °F

How to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius

0 degrees Fahrenheit is equal to -17.77778 degrees Celsius:

0 °F = -17.77778 °C

The temperature T in degrees Celsius (°C) is equal to the temperature T in degrees Fahrenheit (°F) minus 32, times 5/9:

T_(°C) = (T_(°F) - 32) × 5/9

or

T_(°C) = (T_(°F) - 32) / (9/5)

or

T_(°C) = (T_(°F) - 32) / 1.8

Example

Convert 68 degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius:

T_(°C) = (68°F - 32) × 5/9 = 20 °C

How to convert Fahrenheit to Kelvin

The temperature T in Kelvin (K) is equal to the temperature T in degrees Fahrenheit (°F) plus 459.67, times 5/9:

T_(K) = (T_(°F) + 459.67)× 5/9

Example

Convert 60 degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Kelvin:

T_(K) = (60°F + 459.67)× 5/9 = 288.71 K
