Converting between Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature scales The chart below will help you quickly make rough conversions between the Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature scales. To make more exact conversions, use the formulas below the chart. Tc = Temperature in Celsius Tf = Temperature in Fahrenheit Tc = (5/9)*(Tf-32) For example: 100 degree Fahrenheit Tc = (5/9)*(100-32) = (5/9)*68 = 37.8 Jul 24 06, 6:43 AM
