9/5 C then add 32

0 degrees Centigrade times 9/5 is 0
0+32 = fahrenheit 32 degrees

water boils at 100 degrees centigrade
9/5 x 100 = 180 180 +32 = 212F water boils

Temperature Conversion - Celsius( Centigrade ) to Fahrenheit

The metric system uses the Celsius scale to measure temperature. However, temperatures are still measured on the Fahrenheit scale in the U.S.

Water freezes at 0o Celsius and boils at 100o Celsius which is a difference of 100o. Water freezes at 32o Fahrenheit and boils at 212o Fahrenheit which is a difference of 180o. Therefore each degree on the Celsius scale is equal to 180/100 or 9/5 degrees on the Fahrenheit scale.

How to convert Celsius temperatures to Fahrenheit
Multiply the Celsius temperature by 9/5.
Add 32o to adjust for the offset in the Fahrenheit scale.
Example: convert 37o C to Fahrenheit.
37 * 9/5 = 333/5 = 66.6
66.6 + 32 = 98.6o F
There is a mental math method to convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit. The ratio of 9/5 is equal to 1.8 and 1.8 is equivalent to 2 - 0.2

How to convert Celsius temperatures to Fahrenheit with mental math.
Double the Celsius temperature (multiply by 2).
Take 1/10 of this number (2 * 1/10 = 0.2) and subtract it from the number above.
Add 32o to adjust for the offset in the Fahrenheit scale.

Example: convert 37o C to Fahrenheit.
37 * 2 = 74
74 * 1/10 = 7.4
74 - 7.4 = 66.6
66.6 + 32 = 98.6o F

Fahrenheit to Celsius

C = (F-32)* 5/9

Celcius to Fahrenheit

F = C* 9/5 +32

5 deg F is below freezing point (32F) so the answer will be negative in celsius. First take away 32 this gives -27 then divide by 9 which gives -3 and finally multiply by 5 which makes -15. So 5 deg F is -15 deg C. The formula is (F-32)x5/9

Some people insist on using scientific mathmatical formulas for figuring it out. But its like turning on the tv to see the weather report instead of opening the window or walking out the door. The easiest solution to this problem has always been to buy 2 thermometers.

C = ( F - 32 ) x ( 5 / 9)
where C = temp. in degree centigrade .............and ..........F = degrees fahrenheit
.............its simple.............

There are a number of websites that will either convert it for you, or will give you the formula. The website below will give you the formula.
