About degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius

Degree Fahrenheit (°F)

On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 °F and boils at 212 °F at standard pressure, so 180 °F spans the same range as 100 °C. It is used for weather and cooking mainly in the United States.

Degree Celsius (°C)

The Celsius scale sets 0 °C at the freezing point of water and 100 °C at its boiling point at standard pressure; 0 °C equals 273.15 K. It is used for weather, cooking and science in most countries.

Both are units of temperature; the base unit used internally is K.

Notes

°F to °C FAQs

How do I convert degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius?

Use the formula °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9. For example, 25 °F is -3.88889 °C. You can also type any value into the converter above and the answer updates as you type.

What is 1 degree Fahrenheit in degrees Celsius?

1 °F = -17.22222222 °C (temperature scales are offset, so this is not a simple ratio and does not apply to other values). To go the other way, use the degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit converter.

What is 90 °F in degrees Celsius?

90 °F = 32.2222 °C, rounded to 6 significant digits. Change the value in the converter above for any other amount.

What is 110 °F in degrees Celsius?

110 °F = 43.3333 °C, rounded to 6 significant digits.

What is the difference between degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius?

On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 °F and boils at 212 °F at standard pressure, so 180 °F spans the same range as 100 °C. It is used for weather and cooking mainly in the United States. The Celsius scale sets 0 °C at the freezing point of water and 100 °C at its boiling point at standard pressure; 0 °C equals 273.15 K. It is used for weather, cooking and science in most countries.

Is there a lowest possible temperature?

Yes, absolute zero: 0 K, which is -273.15 °C or -459.67 °F. The converter rejects values below it.
