      Formula

      °C = (°F − 32) × 5 ÷ 9
      Equivalently: °C = (°F − 32) ÷ 1.8

      How to use it

      1. Type the temperature in Fahrenheit.
      2. Read the result in Celsius; the Kelvin value is shown underneath.
      3. Open the table for common cooking, weather and body temperatures.

      Reference points

      32 °F = 0 °C (water freezes). 68 °F = 20 °C (room temperature). 98.6 °F = 37 °C (body temperature). 212 °F = 100 °C (water boils). 350 °F = 176.7 °C (moderate oven).

      The two scales meet at −40: −40 °C is exactly −40 °F. Nothing can be colder than absolute zero, −273.15 °C or −459.67 °F, so values below that return no result.

      Questions people ask

      What is 100 °C in Fahrenheit?

      212 °F — the boiling point of water at sea level.

      What is 98.6 °F in Celsius?

      37 °C, the traditional figure for normal body temperature.

      Is there a quick way to estimate it?

      From Celsius to Fahrenheit, double it and add 30. From Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 30 and halve it. Both are a few degrees off at the extremes.
