Fahrenheit to Celsius Converter & Common Reference Table
°F equals °C multiplied by 9/5, plus 32.
For example, to convert 20 degrees Celsius (centigrade) to degrees Fahrenheit, we plug our numbers into the formula as shown below:
°F = (°C × (9/5)) + 32
°F = (20 × (9/5)) + 32
°F = (20 × 1.8) + 32
°F = 36 + 32
°F = 68
20 degrees Celsius is equal to 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
This calculator will show the steps to solve the °C to °F formula so you know how make the conversion yourself.
°C equals °F minus 32, divided by 9/5.
Also, to convert 68 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius (centigrade), we plug our numbers into the formula as shown below:
°C = (°F − 32) ÷ (9/5)
°C = (68 − 32) ÷ (9/5)
°C = 36 ÷ 1.8
°C = 20
68 degrees Fahrenheit is equal to 20 degrees Celsius.

Celsius Temperature
Symbol: °C
Definition: Based on the freezing and boiling points of water.
0 °C : The freezing point of pure water under standard atmospheric pressure.
100 °C : The boiling point of pure water under standard atmospheric pressure.
Divide the area between the two points into 100 equal parts, each part represents one degree Celsius.
Regions of use: Most countries in the world, including China and European countries.
Fahrenheit Temperature
Symbol: °F
Definition: It was proposed by German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit.
0 °F : The lowest temperature at which he could prepare the ammonium chloride-ice salt mixture at that time.
96 °F : He measured the average human body temperature (this benchmark was later revised).
According to his definition, the freezing point of water is 32°F and the boiling point is 212°F.
Regions of use: Mainly in a few countries and regions such as the United States, the Cayman Islands, and Belize.
