What is 165 degrees Fahrenheit in Celsius?

To convert 165°F to Celsius, use the formula:

C=(F−32)×5÷9​

Where $F$ is the temperature in Fahrenheit.

Substituting 165°F into the formula:

C=(165−32)×5÷9 =133×5÷9 =665÷9 ≈73.89∘C

So, 165°F is approximately 73.89°C.

Final Result:

So, 165°F is approximately 73.89°C. This means that the temperature is just under 74°C.

Why Use This Formula?

This formula is derived from the fact that both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales have different zero points (32°F = 0°C) and different intervals between each degree. The Celsius scale increases faster, meaning that for every 1°C change, there is a 1.8°F change (which is why we multiply by 5 and divide by 9).
