How to Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit

Formula

°F = (°C × 9/5) + 32

Step-by-Step

  1. Take the temperature in Celsius
  2. Multiply by 9/5 (or 1.8)
  3. Add 32 to the result
  4. The result is the temperature in Fahrenheit

Example

Convert 20°C to Fahrenheit: (20 × 9/5) + 32 = 36 + 32 = 68°F

About the Celsius Scale

The Celsius scale (°C) is a metric temperature scale where water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C at standard atmospheric pressure. It's widely used worldwide, especially in scientific contexts and most countries outside the United States.

About the Fahrenheit Scale

The Fahrenheit scale (°F) is primarily used in the United States and its territories. Water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F. The scale was developed by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724.
