Conversion formula
°C = (°F − 32) × 5 ⁄ 9. Subtract 32, then multiply by 5 and divide by 9.
Example: 98.6 °F → (98.6 − 32) × 5/9 = 37 °C (normal body temperature). Water boils at 212 °F (100 °C) and freezes at 32 °F (0 °C).
When you need it
Handy for weather forecasts, oven temperatures in recipes, and body temperature when traveling or reading international instructions.
Celsius to Fahrenheit chart
°F = °C × 9/5 + 32, and °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9. −40 is the one temperature that is the same on both scales.

Oven temperatures
Common baking temperatures: 160 °C ≈ 325 °F, 180 °C ≈ 350 °F (the most common), 200 °C ≈ 400 °F and 220 °C ≈ 425 °F. For fan (convection) ovens, recipes usually suggest about 20 °C (25 °F) lower.
Frequently asked questions
What is 350 °F in Celsius?
350 °F is about 177 °C, a common oven temperature for baking.
Quick mental conversion?
Subtract 30 and halve it: 80 °F → 25 °C (exact: 26.7 °C). It is close for everyday weather.
Is 37 °C a fever?
No, 37 °C (98.6 °F) is a typical normal body temperature. A fever is usually defined as 38 °C (100.4 °F) or higher.
