Free Online Celsius to Fahrenheit

Celsius and Fahrenheit are linked by F = C × 9/5 + 32 (inverse C = (F − 32) × 5/9). Affine, not linear.

How to Use This Converter

  1. Type a value into either the Celsius or Fahrenheit field.
  2. The other field updates immediately using the affine formula.
  3. Read the formula displayed under the inputs to verify the conversion.

What Is a Celsius to Fahrenheit?

Temperature is the textbook example of an affine conversion: the scales have different step sizes (9 F per 5 C) and different zero points (0 C lines up with 32 F). Skip the offset and a 20 C oven becomes a freezing 36 F instead of a warm 68 F.

The everyday anchors are worth memorising: water freezes at 0 C / 32 F, boils at 100 C / 212 F, the two scales meet at -40 C / -40 F, and normal body temperature is 37 C / 98.6 F. US oven recipes at 350 F bake at 177 C; a 20 C room is a comfortable 68 F.
