Temperature Conversion Guide

Temperature conversion uses a formula because the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales start from different reference points. Multiplying alone is not enough.

Celsius to Fahrenheit

Use F = C x 9/5 + 32. This is useful for weather, ovens, and travel planning.

Fahrenheit to Celsius

Use C = (F - 32) x 5/9. This is common when interpreting US recipes or weather forecasts.

Precision

Rounded weather values are fine, but food safety, medical, and laboratory temperatures require the specified precision.
