I just use the web page to convert cos I'm a lazy sod.
The formula - lemme look it up
It's subtract 32 then multiple by 5/9
T(c) = (T(f) - 32) x 5/9

To convert Fahrenheit temperatures into Celsius Begin by subtracting 32 from the Fahrenheit number. Divide the answer by 9. Then multiply that answer by 5. Here's an example: Change 95 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius: 95 minus 32 is 63. Then, 63 divided by 9 is 7. Finally, 7 times 5 is 35 degrees Celsius. Time to go to the beach!

it's very easy
t(c)=[t(f)-32] x 5/9
Tc = (5/9)*(Tf-32); Tc = temperature in degrees Celsius, Tf = temperature in degrees Fahrenheit
For example, assume you have a Fahrenheit temperature of 98.6 degrees and you desire to convert it into degrees on the Celsius scale. Using the above formula, you would first subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature and get 66.6 as a result. Then you multiply 66.6 by five-ninths and get the converted value of 37 degrees Celsius.
Below is the formula to convert a Celsius scale temperature into degrees on the Fahrenheit(commonly misspelled Farenheit) scale. As you might guess, it is the exact opposite of converting Fahrenheit to Celsius.
Tf = (9/5)*Tc+32; Tc = temperature in degrees Celsius, Tf = temperature in degrees Fahrenheit
Assume that you have a Celsius scale temperature of 100 degrees and you wish to convert it into degrees on the Fahrenheit scale. Using the stated formula, you first multiply the Celsius scale temperature reading by nine-fifths and get a result of 180. Then add 32 to 180 and get the final converted result of 212 degrees on the Fahrenheit scale.
Below is another accepted conversion method that works just as well and perhaps might be easier to remember. No matter which direction you want to covert, Fahrenheit to Celsius or Celsius to Fahrenheit, always first add 40 to the number. Next, multiply by 5/9 or 9/5 just like the first method. Then, always subtract out the 40 you just added to yield the final result. To remember whether to use 5/9 or 9/5 when converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius or Celsius to Fahrenheit, just simply remember, F (for Fahrenheit) begins with the same letter as Fraction. 5/9 is always a Fraction; while 9/5 is also a fraction, in this form, it is Clearly a whole number plus a fraction (1 and 4/5). Thus, if you want to convert Fahrenheit (F) to Celsius (C), then use the Fraction 5/9; Celsius (C) to Fahrenheit (F), use the other, 9/5, which is Clearly not just a fraction.
For an example of this method, we'll use the values we used in the initial example, 98.6 F and 37 C, which are equal.
To convert from F to C, try these calculations manually.
98.6 + 40 = 138.6, and 138.6 * 5/9 = 77. For the final calculation, remove the 40. 77 - 40 = 37
To convert from C to F, try these calculations manually.
37 + 40 = 77, and 77 * 9/5 = 138.6. For the final calculation, remove the 40. 138.6 - 40 = 98.6
In summary, add 40, (F to C) multiply by Fraction...(C to F) multiply by the other, subtract 40.

The formula is:
ºC / 5 = F - 32 / 9
Let´s check it.
Let´s convert 10 ºC in Fahrenheit
Using the formula.
10 ºC / 5 = F - 32 / 9
2 = F - 32 / 9
18 = F - 32
F = 50
You can also use google to convert it. Just go to google and type:
10 celsius in fahrenheit
I hope I helped you!

°F to °C:
n°F-32/1.8=n°C
or
n°F-32*5/9=n°C
°C to °F
n°C*1.8+32=n°F
or
n°C*9/5+32=n°F
Both ways end up with the same result. You must use the formula as shown, if you don't, you end up with some pretty weird figures.
