Fahrenheit to kelvin
Please provide values below to convert Fahrenheit [°F] to kelvin [K], or change ↔.
Fahrenheit [°F]
Definition: The Fahrenheit scale is a temperature scale where the freezing point of water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit and the boiling point is 212 degrees Fahrenheit at standard atmospheric pressure.
Historyandorigin: It was introduced by German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724. The scale was originally based on a mixture of ice, water, and salt.
CurrentUse: It is primarily used in the United States for everyday temperature measurements.
funfact: The Fahrenheit scale was designed so that the temperature range between the freezing and boiling points of water is divided into 180 degrees.
kelvin [K]
Definition: The kelvin is the base unit of temperature in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined by setting the fixed numerical value of the Boltzmann constant k to 1.380649×10^-23 J/K.
Historyandorigin: The kelvin was named after the British physicist William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin. It was originally defined based on the triple point of water and absolute zero.
CurrentUse: It is widely used in scientific contexts, especially in thermodynamics and astronomy.
funfact: Absolute zero, the lowest possible temperature, is 0 K.

How to Convert Fahrenheit to kelvin
1 Fahrenheit [°F] = 255.92777778 kelvin [K]
1 kelvin [K] = -457.87 Fahrenheit [°F]
we use cross multiplication method
Fahrenheit [°F] → kelvin [K]
1 → 255.92777778
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*255.92777778=1*x
by simplifying
x=256.20555556
