Conversion of units of temperature

This is a collection of temperature conversion formulas and comparisons among eight different temperature scales, several of which have long been obsolete.

Celsius

Temperature conversions

Fahrenheit [°F] = [°C] × 95 + 32 [°C] = ([°F]  32) × 59

* Normal human body temperature is 36.8 °C ±0.7 °C, or 98.2 °F ±1.3 °F. The commonly given value 98.6 °F is simply the exact conversion of the nineteenth-century German standard of 37 °C. Since it does not list an acceptable range, it could therefore be said to have excess (invalid) precision.[4]

Some numbers in this table have been rounded.
