Convert Degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit
1 degree Celsius = 33.8 degrees Fahrenheit · °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32
When you need this conversion
Weather is the everyday use, but cooking is where precision matters most — oven temperatures like 180 °C versus 350 °F appear in recipes written on opposite sides of the Atlantic. Body temperature is the other high-stakes case: 37 °C is normal, and 38 °C (100.4 °F) is the standard fever threshold used by most health authorities.

The formula
°F = (°C × 9/5) + 32Temperature scales do not share a common zero point, so converting degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit requires both a scaling step and an offset rather than a single multiplication.
