How do I convert kelvins to degrees Fahrenheit?

Use the formula °F = (K − 273.15) × 9/5 + 32. For example, 0 K = -459.67 °F.

What is 273.15 K in degrees Fahrenheit?

273.15 kelvins equals 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

How do I convert degrees Fahrenheit back to kelvins?

Use the reverse Fahrenheit to Kelvin converter: K = (°F − 32) × 5/9 + 273.15.

How to convert kelvins to degrees Fahrenheit

Temperature scales do not share the same zero point, so you cannot simply multiply. Use this formula:

°F = (K − 273.15) × 9/5 + 32

Examples

0 K = -459.67 °F
273.15 K = 32 °F
373.15 K = 212 °F

About the units

Kelvin (K)

The kelvin is the SI base unit of temperature. 0 K is absolute zero, and a change of 1 K equals a change of 1 °C. It is used in science and engineering.

Degree Fahrenheit (°F)

On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 °F and boils at 212 °F. It is used for weather, cooking and body temperature mainly in the United States.
