How the conversion works
The relationship is °F = K × 9/5 − 459.67. Both units measure temperature, so the conversion is a fixed formula that never changes. Temperature scales are the one common case where converting is not just multiplication — Celsius and Fahrenheit each put their zero in a different place, so an offset is applied as well as a scale factor.
