How do you convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?

Use °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32.

Detailed answer

Multiply Celsius by 9/5 (same as 1.8), then add 32 to account for the different zero points. Example: 0 °C → 32 °F; 100 °C → 212 °F.

Relationship context

Celsius is metric; Fahrenheit is common in the US. The step sizes differ and an offset is required, so you cannot convert with a single multiply alone.
