About this calculator

This calculator converts temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius using the standard linear conversion formula — useful for reading imported equipment specifications or temperature gauges marked in Fahrenheit.

Formula

°C = (°F − 32) × 5/9
  • °FTemperature — degrees Fahrenheit
  • °CTemperature — degrees Celsius

Worked Example

Given: An imported gauge reads 100°F.

Result: (100 − 32) × 5/9 = 37.8°C.

How to Use

  1. Enter the temperature in °F.
  2. Click Calculate to see the equivalent temperature in °C.

Important Assumptions

  • Exact conversion formula.

Common Mistakes

  • Forgetting to subtract 32 before scaling, which is the most common error in this conversion.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is normal room temperature in both units?
