Frequently Asked Questions

What is the formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?

The formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit is: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. This means you multiply the Celsius temperature by 9/5 (or 1.8) and then add 32. For example, 20°C = (20 × 9/5) + 32 = 68°F.

What is 0 degrees Celsius in Fahrenheit?

0 degrees Celsius equals 32 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the freezing point of water at standard atmospheric pressure and is a fundamental reference point in temperature conversion.

What is 100 degrees Celsius in Fahrenheit?

100 degrees Celsius equals 212 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the boiling point of water at standard atmospheric pressure (sea level) and another key reference point for temperature scales.

Why do we need to convert between Celsius and Fahrenheit?

Different countries and industries use different temperature scales. Celsius is used in most of the world and in scientific applications, while Fahrenheit is primarily used in the United States. Accurate conversion is essential for international communication, scientific research, and industrial processes.
