About Celsius to Fahrenheit
Convert celsius to fahrenheit instantly, with a reference table of common values. Because the two scales do not share a zero point, this needs a formula rather than a single multiplier โ the converter applies the exact celsius-to-fahrenheit conversion for you.
The direction travellers to the United States need, and anyone reading an American recipe or weather forecast. Oven temperatures are the most common use, and the difference is large enough to ruin baking.
Anders Celsius proposed the scale in 1742 โ originally inverted, with 0 as boiling and 100 as freezing, which was reversed after his death. It is now defined against the kelvin, with 0 ยฐC at 273.15 K. It is the everyday temperature scale in almost every country, and the scientific standard for ordinary laboratory work. Water freezes at 0 ยฐC and boils at 100 ยฐC at sea level, and normal human body temperature is about 37 ยฐC.
Worked through with real numbers: -10 ยฐC is 14 ยฐF, 0 ยฐC is 32 ยฐF, 20 ยฐC is 68 ยฐF, 100 ยฐC is 212 ยฐF.
As for the other side of the conversion: water freezes at 32 ยฐF and boils at 212 ยฐF, and a comfortable room is about 70 ยฐF.
Temperature is the one conversion here that needs a formula rather than a single factor, because Celsius and Fahrenheit do not share a zero point. That offset also means a temperature difference converts differently from a temperature: a rise of 10 ยฐC is a rise of 18 ยฐF, not 50 ยฐF.

Frequently asked questions
How do I convert celsius to fahrenheit?
Enter a value above and the exact fahrenheit temperature appears instantly, using the standard celsius-to-fahrenheit formula.
When would I need to convert celsius to fahrenheit?
The direction travellers to the United States need, and anyone reading an American recipe or weather forecast. Oven temperatures are the most common use, and the difference is large enough to ruin baking.
What is a celsiu, exactly?
Anders Celsius proposed the scale in 1742 โ originally inverted, with 0 as boiling and 100 as freezing, which was reversed after his death. It is now defined against the kelvin, with 0 ยฐC at 273.15 K. Water freezes at 0 ยฐC and boils at 100 ยฐC at sea level, and normal human body temperature is about 37 ยฐC.
Where is the fahrenheit actually used?
It remains the everyday scale in the United States and a few smaller territories, and persists in older British and Caribbean usage for weather. Water freezes at 32 ยฐF and boils at 212 ยฐF, and a comfortable room is about 70 ยฐF.
Is there anything tricky about temperature conversions?
Temperature is the one conversion here that needs a formula rather than a single factor, because Celsius and Fahrenheit do not share a zero point. That offset also means a temperature difference converts differently from a temperature: a rise of 10 ยฐC is a rise of 18 ยฐF, not 50 ยฐF.
Is this converter accurate?
Yes. It applies the standard scale conversion exactly, with no rounding beyond what is shown.
