The conversion between degrees Celsius (°C) and degrees Fahrenheit (°F) is a fundamental concept used in various scientific and everyday applications. Understanding this conversion is crucial for accurate temperature measurements and comparisons.
One of the most common conversions is converting from Celsius to Fahrenheit. To perform this conversion, you can use the following formula:
°F = (9/5) × °C + 32
°C | °F |
---|---|
0 | 32 |
10 | 50 |
20 | 68 |
30 | 86 |
40 | 104 |
50 | 122 |
60 | 140 |
70 | 158 |
80 | 176 |
90 | 194 |
100 | 212 |
Example 1: Convert 25°C to Fahrenheit.
Using the formula:
°F = (9/5) × 25 + 32
°F = 45 + 32
°F = 77
Therefore, 25°C is equal to 77°F.
Example 2: Convert 55°F to Celsius.
Using the formula:
°C = (5/9) × (°F - 32)
°C = (5/9) × (55 - 32)
°C = 13
Therefore, 55°F is equal to 13°C.
