Convert kelvins (K) to degrees Fahrenheit (°F). Type a number in either box and the result appears as you type.
Enter a number, for example 12.5
1 kelvin = -457.87 degrees Fahrenheit
Formula: °F = (K − 273.15) × 9/5 + 32
How to convert kelvins to degrees Fahrenheit
°F = (K − 273.15) × 9/5 + 32
Subtract 273.15 from the temperature in kelvins, multiply by 9/5 (or 1.8), then add 32.
Example: 300 K = 80.33 °F
