Temperature conversion formulas

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

Celsius	Fahrenheit	What it is
−40 °C	−40 °F	Where both scales meet
0 °C	32 °F	Water freezes
25 °C	77 °F	Room temperature
37 °C	98.6 °F	Normal body temperature
38 °C	100.4 °F	Fever threshold (commonly used)
45 °C	113 °F	Severe heatwave in North India
100 °C	212 °F	Water boils (sea level)
180 °C	356 °F	Moderate oven for baking

To estimate °F from °C, double it and add 30: 25 °C ≈ 80 °F (exact: 77 °F). To go the other way, subtract 30 and halve.

What is 98.6 °F in Celsius?

Exactly 37 °C, the traditional normal human body temperature.

Why is there no degree sign with Kelvin?

Kelvin is an absolute scale starting at absolute zero, so values are written simply as K, for example 300 K.
