How do you convert degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit to Kelvin?

Answer 1

To convert Celsius to Kelvin:

K = C + 273.15

To convert Fahrenheit to Kelvin, convert Fahrenheit to Celsius by using this formula:

C = (F - 32)/1.8

Then, convert it to Kelvin by using the previous formula, adding 273.15 to the Celsius value.

To convert the Celsius to Kelvin, you just add 273.15

Kelvin does not use the º symbol.

Answer 2

Converting Fahrenheit and Celsius

-----------------

To go from Fahrenheit to Celsius:

• Begin by subtracting 32 from the Fahrenheit number.
• Divide the answer by 9.
• Then multiply that answer by 5.

For example- if it is 70 degrees F outside, and you want to know the temperature in C:

• 70-32=38
• 38/9 =4.2
• 4.2 x 5 = 21.1

It is about 21 degrees Celsius outside

-----------------------

To go from Celsius to Fahrenheit:

• Begin by multiplying the Celsius temperature by 9.
• Divide the answer by 5.
• Now add 32.

Answer 3

• Use this equation to convert degrees Fahrenheit (ºF) to degrees Celsius/Centigrade (ºC): [°C] = ([°F] - 32) × 0.556
• Use this equation to convert degrees Fahrenheit to Kelvin: [K] = ([°F] + 459.67) × 0.556

Answer 4

To convert degrees Celsius to Kelvin, add 273.15 to the Celsius temperature. To convert degrees Fahrenheit to Kelvin, first convert Fahrenheit to Celsius using the formula (Fahrenheit - 32) x 5/9, then add 273.15 to the Celsius temperature.

Answer 5

First convert the Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius using the following formula:

Celsius = (5/9)*(Fahrenheit-32), then add 273.15

Answer 6

Celsius to Fahrenheit: multiply by 9, divide by 5, add 32.

Celsius to Kelvin: add 273.15
