Calculation Info

The Fahrenheit to Kelvin (°F to K) Converter is a simple tool designed to help you easily convert temperatures from Fahrenheit, a common temperature scale primarily used in the United States, to Kelvin, the standard unit of temperature used in scientific contexts worldwide.

Fahrenheit (°F) is a temperature scale where water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees under standard atmospheric pressure. It is mainly used in the United States for everyday temperature measurements. Kelvin (K), on the other hand, is an absolute temperature scale used in science and engineering, starting from absolute zero—the point where all molecular motion stops.

The conversion from Fahrenheit to Kelvin involves two steps. First, you convert Fahrenheit to Celsius using the formula:
°C = (°F – 32) × 5/9.
Then, you convert Celsius to Kelvin with the formula:
K = °C + 273.15.

By combining these steps, the direct formula from Fahrenheit to Kelvin becomes:
K = (°F – 32) × 5/9 + 273.15.
This converter uses this formula to quickly and accurately provide the temperature in Kelvin based on your input in Fahrenheit.
