How to Convert Temperature Properly
📏 Temperature Scales
- Celsius (°C) – Metric scale used almost everywhere except the USA.
- Fahrenheit (°F) – Mainly used in the USA.
- Kelvin (K) – Used in scientific contexts.
🔁 Conversion Formulas
- °C to °F: (°C × 9/5) + 32
- °F to °C: (°F − 32) × 5/9
- °C to K: °C + 273.15
- K to °C: K − 273.15
💡 Tips for Accurate Conversion
- Use decimals for precision (e.g., 37.78 °C = 100 °F).
- Remember Kelvin does not use degrees symbol.
