Key Formulas
Celsius → Fahrenheit
°F = f(°C)Fahrenheit → Celsius
°C = f(°F)Celsius → Kelvin
K = f(°C)Kelvin → Celsius
°C = f(K)Formula
°F = °R - 459.67Both Rankine and Fahrenheit use the same degree size — the only difference is where they start. Rankine starts at absolute zero (0°R), while Fahrenheit's zero is 459.67°R above absolute zero. Simply subtract 459.67 to convert.
