Would really like to know what the fomula is for converting oven temperatures from Farenheit to Celius etc.

Appreciate any advice!

yes there is

f = 9/5 * c + 32
c = 5/9 * (f - 32)

As you can see there are various different way you can express the conversion. I too forget this. So, I try to remember a longway. Here is the logic I remember:

celcius:
freezingpoint=0, boiling point=100, divided intopart=100
farenheit:
freezingpoint=32,boiling point=212, divided intopart=180
If you hold the two side-by-side such that the freezing and boiling points are aligned; then for any unit segment:

(f-32)/180=(c-0)/100
(f-32)/9 = c/5

Now you can manipulate around per your need.

Converting from Celsius to Fahrenheit, you multiply by 9/5 then add 32. But when converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius, you have to subtract 32 before multiplying by 5/9.

C = (5/9)(F-32) --> conversion from farenheit to celsius
F = (9/5)(C+32) --> conversion from celsius to farenheit

From Celsius to Fahrenheit:
Multiply number by 1.8 then add 32.

Backwards:
Subtract 32 then divide by 1.8

It is easy. To go from Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32, and then multiply by 5 and divide by 9.

yes it is C=5/9(F-32)

0 degrees Celsius is 32 Fahrenheit. 10 degrees celsius is 42 degrees fahrenheit.

f = 9/5 * c + 32
c = 5/9 * f - 32

I can't believe all those other answer forgot their brackets!

C = 9/5*(F-32) ... need brackets here
F = 5/9*C + 32 ... don't need brackets here
