Frequently asked questions

How do you convert Fahrenheit to Celsius?

Use the formula °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9. The converter at the top of this page does it as you type, and the reference table below lists the conversions people look up most often. Each row links to a page showing the full calculation for that temperature.

Why is the Fahrenheit to Celsius formula not a simple multiplication?

The two scales disagree on both where zero sits and how large one degree is. A Fahrenheit degree covers 5/9 as much temperature change as a Celsius degree, and the scales are offset by 32 degrees at the freezing point of water. A conversion therefore needs both a scaling step and an offset step.

How many decimal places does the result show?

Results are rounded to 2 decimal places. For everyday use — cooking, weather, checking a thermometer — rounding to a whole number is fine. Each value page shows the full arithmetic if you need to see exactly where the figure comes from.

Does this converter need an internet connection?
