What This Calculator Does
The Celsius to Fahrenheit Converter translates metric temperatures into the imperial scale used in the United States. Weather apps, international news, and most of the world report temperatures in Celsius, so this tool helps you understand what 25 degrees actually feels like when the forecast comes from abroad.
How It Works
Multiply the Celsius temperature by 1.8, then add 32. This accounts for both the different scale size and the different zero point between the two systems.
Example
Room temperature of 22 C equals 71.6 F. A hot summer day at 35 C is 95 F. Body temperature of 37 C equals 98.6 F.
Formula
F = C x 1.8 + 32Multiply by 1.8, then add 32.
