✅ What is Fahrenheit to Celsius Conversion?

The Fahrenheit (°F) scale is commonly used in the United States, while the Celsius (°C) scale is used in most other countries and in science.
To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, use this formula: Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) × 5/9

Example: Let’s convert 98.6°F (average human body temperature) to Celsius:

Celsius = (98.6 - 32) × 5/9 ≈ 37°C
So, 98.6°F is approximately equal to 37°C.
