How to Convert Temperature: Fahrenheit to Celsius and Celsius to Fahrenheit



How to Convert Temperature F to C and C to F

Many healthcare workers regularly convert temperatures. For example, the thermometer or monitor displays the patient's body temperature in one scale while the doctor's orders are specified in another scale.

I have included two charts: one for converting from degrees F (Fahrenheit) to degrees C (Celsius or Centigrade) and the other for converting from degrees C (Celsius or Centigrade) to degrees F (Fahrenheit). Each chart shows three different ways to convert the temperature. You might wish to choose the option that seems simplest to you and perhaps check your math with one or both of the other methods.
*Note that 0.556 is a rounded number. The technically correct number is 0.5555555.

To convert
Celsius to Fahrenheit
use any of the following formulas
°F = °C X 9/5 + 32
  • Start with °C
  • Multiply by 9
  • Divide by 5
  • Add 32
°C multiply by 1.8 then add 32


To convert
Fahrenheit to Celsius
use any of the following formulas
°C = (°F - 32) X 5/9
  • Start with °F
  • Deduct 32
  • Multiply by 5
  • Divide by 9
°F minus 32 then multiply by 0.556

I hope you find these temperature conversion tips and directions to be helpful!

How to Convert Oz to mL – Quick and Simple Tips and Conversion Chart

Convert Oz to mL - Quick Tips and Conversion Chart
Many careers, such as those in the healthcare field require one to know how to convert ounces to milliliters. This knowledge can then be applied to calculate intake and output and other valuable information in assessing a patient.

1 ounce = 30 milliliters
1oz = 30mL

Simply multiply the number of ounces by 30 in order to obtain the number of milliliters.

Here are some examples:

How to Convert mL to cc – It Doesn't Get Any Easier Than This!

Conversion for cc to mL - Photo by Frank C. Müller
Many people who work in healthcare and other professions as well as family caregivers may need to convert volumes from mL (milliliters) to cc (cubic centimeters) or cc to mL. Relax! This is the easiest conversion I know.
  1. Converting mL to cc or cc to mL is a 1:1 conversion.
  2. Put another way, the number of mLs equals the number of ccs.
  3. Put yet another way, there is no math involved because the numbers are the same for mLs and ccs.
Need some examples?
  • 1 cc = 1 mL
  • 5 cc = 5 mL
  • 10 cc = 10 mL
  • 30 cc = 30 mL
  • 120 cc = 120 mL
  • 240 cc = 240 mL
  • 360 cc = 360 mL
  • 1000 cc = 1000 mL
Please note: This conversion does not include conversions for ounces!
