How to convert °C to °F

The formula is °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32, or roughly (°C × 2) + 30. For example, (150 × 9/5) + 32 = 270 + 32 = 302°F.

For an oven, use the dial setting rather than the exact figure: ovens are set in steps and swing by more than a few degrees. A fan (convection) oven runs hotter, so set it 20 °C lower.

Questions

What is 150°C in Fahrenheit?

150°C is 302°F. On a Fahrenheit oven, set 300°F; in a fan oven, 130°C; gas mark 2.

What is 150°C in a fan oven?

A fan (convection) oven cooks hotter, so set it 20 °C lower: 130°C.

What gas mark is 150°C?

Gas mark 2, a low oven.

Why does the oven dial say 300°F, not 302°F?

Oven dials step in 25 °F and 10 °C, so recipes round to the nearest setting. An oven swings by more than the difference, so set the dial and check doneness the way the recipe says.
