Celsius (°C) to Fahrenheit (°F)Converting from Celsius (°C) to Fahrenheit (°F) is another common temperature conversion. You can use the following formula to convert temperatures from Celsius to Fahrenheit:
°F = (°C × 9/5) + 32
Here's how the conversion works:
Let's use an example to illustrate this:
Example: Convert 20°C to Fahrenheit.
°F = (20°C × 9/5) + 32
°F = (36) + 32
°F = 68°F
So, 20°C is equivalent to 68°F.
This conversion is widely used in weather forecasts, cooking, and scientific applications to switch between the Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature scales. It's important to note that the Celsius scale is based on the freezing and boiling points of water, where 0°C is the freezing point and 100°C is the boiling point at standard atmospheric pressure. The Fahrenheit scale uses different reference points, making it necessary to use a conversion formula to switch between the two temperature scales.
