How to Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit

The formula is:

F = (C × 9/5) + 32

Example: -12° Celsius = 31.1° Fahrenheit

0°C equals 32°F — the freezing point of water at standard atmospheric pressure (1 atm). This is the most fundamental temperature reference point connecting Celsius and Fahrenheit.

About these units

Celsius: The degree Celsius (°C) is the SI-derived unit of temperature. It is defined so that 0 °C = 273.15 K exactly, with the same unit increment as the kelvin.

Fahrenheit: The degree Fahrenheit (°F) is a temperature unit in the US customary system. On this scale, the freezing point of water is 32 °F and the boiling point is 212 °F — exactly 180 degrees apart. ...
