Convert the F temperature to C by using this formula:

[(Temp. in °F - 32) / 1.8]

OR go to google and type "#F to C" and it will tell you.

Well, you already have seven answers, so I wouldn't bother with this, but since all of them are either totally or partially confused, I'll give you a specific and simple answer to your question:

C = 5/9 (F-32)

btw, it's "Celsius," always capitalized, and it is a measure of temperature, not weather.

To convert the other way:

F = 9/5C - 32

The reason for using 9/5 instead of 1.8 is that you can actually figure these formulas out in your head, with a little clear thinking. The 9/5 and 5/9 comes from the ratio of 100/180; these two numbers represent the range from freezing to boiling in C and F respectively. Even if you can't see how the formulae are generated, it is a lot easier to remember (and use) 5/9 than its decimal equivalent (.55555555....).

simple.. if you measure water and it boils at 100.. you are most likely using a thermometer that its on Centigrade,or Celsius degrees.. if water boils at 212, its Fahrenheit..

if the temperature is fairly hot and you have to run the AC.. and you read a temp of 95.. then its probably Fahrenheit.. it can't be Celsius, cause you would almost be at a boiling point for water of 100 Celsius..

so.. water freezes at 0 Celsius, and 32 Fahrenheit.. and
likewise
Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius or Centigrade or 212 degrees Fahrenheit...

hope that helps..
there is another way to measure that is the Kelvin scale..

Kelvin is C + 273 or water freezes at 273 Kelvin..
Here the lowest possible anything can be would be absolute zero, Kelvin =0...

Given a temperature in Farenheit, subtract it first by 32, then divide the resulting difference by 1.8. For example: 98 degrees Farenheit - 32 = 66; 66 / 1.8 = 36.67 degrees Celsius

The conversion formula provided via others is a sturdy place to start. you need to have had no venture looking the thank you to transform one to the different via typing your question into Google or the different seek engine. there is one element i ought to make, even although. Responder, saroor_e… is extremely very incorrect whilst he states that all and sundry you need to do is "subtract 32" from any fahrenheit analyzing to get carry of a celsius analyzing. Fifty stages fahrenheit is 10C, no longer the 18C that would effect from in basic terms subtracting 32 from 50.

You memorize some temperatures.

104F = 40C

95F = +35C

86F = 30C

77F = +25C

68F = +20C

59F = +15C

50F = +10C

41F = +5C

32F = 0C

23F = -5C

14F = -10C

5F = -15C

theres a formula........


if u want to get Calcius.....u use thi
C= F: n(1.8) + 32

n=number (temperatue
