Hi,
To convert degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius and Celsius to Fahrenheit, here are the formulas.

Conversion Formulas
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fahrenheit to Celsius:
C = (F - 32) * 5/9

Celsius to Fahrenheit:
F = C * 9/5 + 32

To convert, plug in the given temperature in degrees Fahrenheit in for F, and subtract from 32, then multiply your difference by 5/9 to get the temperature in degrees Celsius. For a given Celsius temperature, plug in the value for c, multiply it by 9/5 and add 32 to get the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. I would highly suggest using a calculator if possible to make work a lot easier.
Good luck and hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions. :)
