Quickly convert Kelvin to Fahrenheit with this free online calculator. Get accurate Fahrenheit values from Kelvins in just seconds.
How to Convert Kelvin to Fahrenheit
Here’s how to convert Kelvin (K) to Fahrenheit (°F):
Kelvin to Fahrenheit Formula
°F = (K x 9/5) – 459.67
Steps:
- Substitute the Kelvin temperature (°K) into the formula.
- Multiply °K by 9 and then divide by 5.
- Subtract 459.67 from the result.
- The answer will be the temperature in Fahrenheit (°F).
Kelvin to Fahrenheit Conversion examples
100 kelvin to fahrenheit = (100 K * 9/5) – 459.67 = -279.67 °F
1 kelvin to fahrenheit = (1 K * 9/5) – 459.67 = -457.67 °F
350 kelvin to fahrenheit = (350 K * 9/5) – 459.67 = 176.33 °F
4000 kelvin to fahrenheit = (4000 K * 9/5) – 459.67 = 6740.33 °F
300 kelvin to fahrenheit = (300 K * 9/5) – 459.67 = 80.33 °F
400 kelvin to fahrenheit = (400 K * 9/5) – 459.67 = 260.33 °F

FAQs
1. How to convert Kelvin to Fahrenheit?
Use the formula: °F = (°K * 9/5) – 459.67
2. Why is Kelvin used?
Kelvin is used in science because it has an absolute zero point, which is the point where all molecular motion stops. This makes it a good scale for studying thermodynamics and other scientific phenomena.
3. Is Kelvin the Same As Fahrenheit?
No, Kelvin and Fahrenheit are different temperature scales. They have different zero points and use different units (degrees Kelvin vs degrees Fahrenheit).
4. Is Kelvin Higher Than Fahrenheit? / Is Kelvin Hotter Than Fahrenheit?
Not necessarily. A specific temperature can be higher or lower depending on the scale. Kelvin readings will generally be higher than Fahrenheit readings for the same temperature because the Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero (-273.15 °C), which is much colder than the Fahrenheit zero point (-459.67 °F).
5. Does Kelvin Have Degrees?
Yes, Kelvin uses degrees (denoted by °K) just like Fahrenheit and Celsius. However, unlike Fahrenheit and Celsius, the zero point on the Kelvin scale represents absolute zero, the point where all thermal motion ceases.
