Frequently asked questions
How do you convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?
°F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. Common reference points: 0°C = 32°F (freezing), 20°C = 68°F (room temperature), 37°C = 98.6°F (body temperature), 100°C = 212°F (boiling). To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius: °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9.
How many kilometres are in a mile?
1 mile = 1.60934 kilometres. 1 kilometre = 0.62137 miles. Quick mental math: multiply miles by 1.6 to get approximate km, or multiply km by 0.6 to get approximate miles.
