Celsius to Fahrenheit

Snapshot

1 Celsius equals 33.8 Fahrenheit. Conversion Encyclopedia uses the same fixed conversion basis across the calculator, common values, and reverse page for this page.

Reference basis: This conversion uses a scale-and-offset equation (1 Celsius equals 33.8 Fahrenheit.).
Example: For 20 Celsius, the converted value equals 68 Fahrenheit.
Use the reverse page if you need the opposite direction with the same basis.

Explanation

Use this page when you want a direct Celsius to Fahrenheit conversion. On this page, 1 Celsius equals 33.8 Fahrenheit.

The direct answer, calculator, common values table, and FAQ all follow the same exact equation for this route: 1 Celsius equals 33.8 Fahrenheit..

Celsius (deg C): a relative temperature scale widely used in weather, science, and everyday measurement.

Fahrenheit (deg F): a temperature scale used mainly in the United States for weather, cooking, and household references.

This route is useful for weather, cooking, HVAC, travel, and international references where celsius and fahrenheit describe the same physical temperature on different scales.

This conversion uses an affine temperature equation with scale and/or offset terms, so forward and reverse pages must use inverse formulas rather than one shared factor.

Method & Reference

Method basis: exact affine formula (scale + offset) shown in Snapshot.
Equation reference: use the Snapshot formula shown for this route.
Consistency rule: forward and reverse pages use inverse equations to preserve scale reference points.
