Kelvin To Fahrenheit Conversion Calculator
Enter A Temperature
Use this calculator to quickly convert a temperature from Kelvin (K) to degrees Fahrenheit (°F).
Enter a temperature for an instant K to °F conversion - there is no need to press submit!
This calculator accepts values using both scales and so, if required, can be used to convert temperatures in Fahrenheit back to Kelvin.
If interested, this site has a Fahrenheit to Kelvin section, which also features a temperature conversion calculator, formula and tables.
Kelvin To Fahrenheit Formula
The calculator above uses the following formula to convert Kelvin to Fahrenheit:
The worked example below shows how to convert to Fahrenheit from Kelvin using this formula.
If are using this formula to manually convert a temperature, check your result with the calculator.
How To Convert Kelvin To Fahrenheit (K to °F)
This worked example shows how to convert a temperature in Kelvin to Fahrenheit using the formula: Fahrenheit (°F) = Kelvin x 1.8 - 459.67
Worked Example
Convert 300 Kelvin (K) to Fahrenheit (°F)
| °F = | ( 300 x 1.8 ) - 459.67 |
| = | 540 - 459.67 |
| = | 80.33 °F |
| ∴ | therefore, 300 Kelvin is equal to 80.33 Fahrenheit (°F) |

Albert Einstein is shown for illustrative purposes.
Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686–1736), is the proponent of the Fahrenheit temperature scale.
