Converting the other way: degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit

°F = °C × 9/5 + 32. So 537.777778 degrees Celsius is back to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit; one degree Celsius is 33.8 degrees Fahrenheit. See the degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit table.

Quick estimate in your head

Take away 30 and halve: (1,000 − 30) ÷ 2 = 485 °C, close to the exact 537.777778 °C for everyday temperatures.

Common mistakes

Multiplying without the offset is the usual slip: 0 °C is 32 °F, not 0 °F. Do the subtraction or addition in the right order, as in the formula above.

About the units

Degree Fahrenheit (f) and degree Celsius (c) are both units of temperature. Temperature scales have different zero points, so converting needs an offset as well as a multiplication. Results on this page are rounded for display; the conversion itself uses the exact definitions.

Temperature conversions come up in weather forecasts, cooking and oven settings, body temperature and science classes.
