Celsius to Fahrenheit Converter
Convert celsius to fahrenheit instantly — formula shown, chart included, and everything runs in your browser.
| Unit | Value |
|---|---|
| Fahrenheit (°F) | 33.8 |
| Kelvin (K) | 274.15 |
Worked examples
| A 25 °C spring day | 25 × 9/5 + 32 = 77 °F |
| A 180 °C oven (common European baking temp) | 180 × 9/5 + 32 = 356 °F → set 350 °F |
| A 38 °C fever | 38 × 9/5 + 32 = 100.4 °F — the usual medical fever threshold |

How it works
Celsius-to-Fahrenheit is the one conversion that isn't a simple multiplication, because the scales cross zero at different points: °F = °C × 9/5 + 32. The anchors worth memorizing: 0 °C = 32 °F (freezing), 37 °C = 98.6 °F (body temperature), 100 °C = 212 °F (boiling), and −40° is the same in both scales.
For weather, the rough rule "double it and add 30" gets you close between 0-30 °C: 20 °C ≈ 70 °F (exact: 68). For cooking, European recipes bake at 180 °C — that's 356 °F, so use a 350 °F oven. A fever threshold of 38 °C is 100.4 °F.
The formula is °F = °C × 9/5 + 32. For example, 0° Celsius = 32° Fahrenheit.
