Unit Converters

Unit converters change a measurement from one unit to another, such as centimeters to inches, kilograms to pounds or Celsius to Fahrenheit. The hub covers everyday and technical quantities, from length and weight to pressure, energy, data sizes and clothing sizes. Most conversions multiply by a fixed factor, but temperature scales also shift their zero point.

Frequently asked questions

How many centimeters are in an inch?

There are exactly 2.54 centimeters in an inch. The international yard and pound agreement of 1959 defined the inch as 25.4 millimeters, so a foot is exactly 30.48 centimeters.

Multiply the Celsius value by 1.8 and add 32. For example, 20 °C × 1.8 + 32 = 68 °F. To convert back, subtract 32 and divide by 1.8.
