About this conversion

Temperature conversions help with American oven recipes in Fahrenheit, weather apps set to the wrong unit, and science homework that uses kelvin.

A conversion table is handy for common values, but a calculator is faster and avoids interpolation errors for anything in between.

Writing the units next to every number while you work is the simplest way to avoid mistakes. If the units do not cancel to leave the one you want, the calculation is set up wrongly.
