To convert Fahrenheit (°F) to Celsius (°C), use this formula:
°C=(°F−32)1.8°C=\frac{(°F-32)}{1.8}°C=1.8(°F−32)
or equivalently:
°C=(°F−32)(9/5)°C=\frac{(°F-32)}{(9/5)}°C=(9/5)(°F−32)
Steps:
- Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature.
- Divide the result by 1.8 (or 9/5).
For example, to convert 75°F to Celsius:
°C=(75−32)1.8=431.8=23.89°C°C=\frac{(75-32)}{1.8}=\frac{43}{1.8}=23.89°C°C=1.8(75−32)=1.843=23.89°C
A quick approximate method is to subtract 30 from the Fahrenheit temperature and then divide by 2 for an estimate. This formula accurately converts any temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius.
