425°F to Celsius
425°F = 218.3°C = 491.48 K
Working: (425 − 32) × 5/9 = 218.3
425 degrees Fahrenheit converts to 218.3 degrees Celsius.
To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32 first, then multiply by 5/9. For 425°F: 425 − 32 = 393, and 393 × 5/9 = 218.3. The subtraction comes first because the two scales have different zero points — water freezes at 0°C but at 32°F.
A quick mental estimate is to subtract 30 and halve the result, which gives about 197.5°C — 20.8 degrees off the exact 218.3°C. That is close enough to judge the weather, though it drifts badly at oven temperatures.
Four hundred and twenty-five is used where a strong initial heat matters: bread, roast potatoes, and anything that should crisp before it dries. It comes to 218.3°C, which metric recipes give as 220.
