How to Convert Kelvins to Celsius

Formula:

°C=K−273.15°\text{C} = \text{K} - 273.15

Inverse formula:

K=°C+273.15\text{K} = °\text{C} + 273.15

Example

Convert 15 K to °C:

°C=K−273.15°\text{C} = \text{K} - 273.15
°C=15−273.15°\text{C} = \text{15} - 273.15
°C=−258.15°\text{C} = -258.15
=−258.15 °C= -258.15 \, °\text{C}
