To convert from degrees Celsius into degrees Rankine, add 273.15, multiply by 9, and divide by 5. For example, 0 degrees Celsius is equal to (0 + 273.15) = 273.15 x 9 = 2458.35 / 5 = 491.67 degrees Rankine.

R = 9/5 (C + 273.15)

For every additional degree Celsius, the difference between Rankine and Celsius increases by 9 / 5 = 1.8 degrees - the same amount as it increases for x+1 degrees Fahrenheit.

Here is a small table:

0 degrees C = 491.67 Rankine.

1 degree C = 493.47 Rankine.

2 degrees C = 495.27 Rankine.

Similarly, for every increase of one degree Fahrenheit, the number of degrees Rankine increases by 1.

For example:

32 Fahrenheit = 491.67 Rankine

33 Fahrenheit = 492.67 Rankine.

To convert Celsius to Rankine, first convert Celsius to Kelvin by adding 273.15, then multiply by 9/5 or by 1.8 to get the Rankine temperature.

R = 9/5 (C + 273.15)

*Rankine is the Fahrenheit temperature scale re-adjusted to start at absolute zero, so it is also the Fahrenheit temperature plus 459.67 degrees. -459.67°F = 0 R

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
