Converting the other way: degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius

°C = (°F − 32) × 5/9. So 46.4 degrees Fahrenheit is back to 8 degrees Celsius; one degree Fahrenheit is -17.222222 degrees Celsius. See the degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius table.

Quick estimate in your head

Double the Celsius figure and add 30: 8 × 2 + 30 = 46 °F, close to the exact 46.4 °F 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 Celsius (c) and degree Fahrenheit (f) 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.
