The conversion uses simple arithmetic (C is the celsius temp. and K is the Kelvin temp.):

C = K - 273.15
K = C + 273.15

Often, the decimal is ignored but check with your instructor to see what he or she does because you want your answers to match. And, you can alway check your answers using an online conversion calculator - here's one I have used:

to convert from Kelvin to celcius subtract 273
to convert from celcius to Kelvin add 273

Just remember that Celcius temperature is always less than the Kelvin temperature

a 1 degree Kelvin is equivalent to 1 degree Celcius.

The only difference between these two scales is that at absolute O (no heat energy), it is O degrees K and -273 degrees Celcius

The kelvin scale is used to eliminate the negative figures of Celcius

Kelvin = 273+ Celcius So Celcius = Kelvin - 273

Question is already answered.
-237.15 Celius is 0 kelvin.

There is no tricks like converting Farenheit into Celcius.

0 Celcius is based on Water freeze temperature meanwhile 0K where absolute zero—the lowest possible temperature where nothing could be colder and the least possible heat energy remains in a substance.

-273.15C=0K
0C=273.15K
10C=283.15K

Subtract 273 from Kelvin to find °Celsius

0 K - 273 = -273°C

Yeah..

Just subtract 273.15 from the temperature in Kelvin, and u'll get the temperature in degree celcius..

Say if you have 298 K and want C you just subtract 273 which equals 25 C which is standard temperature. And if you have the opposite situation you just add 273!

Just add 273.15 to Celsius to get Kelvin degrees.
K = C +273.15

Just subtract 237.15 from the Kelvin temperature. The scales are identical, they just start at different temperatures.
