To convert Fahrenheit to Kelvin, first convert Fahrenheit to Celsius using the formula (Fahrenheit - 32) x 5/9. Then, add 273.15 to the Celsius value to convert to Kelvin as Celsius and Kelvin have the same magnitude difference, but Kelvin starts at absolute zero.

120°F is about 322.04 kelvins

Since Kelvin and Celsius scales use the same degree size, you can convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius and then add 273.15 (the offset of 0° Celsius from absolute zero, 0 kelvins).

K = 5/9 (F-32) + 273.15

K = 5/9(120-32) +273.15 = 5/9(88)+273.15 = 48.89+273.15 = 322.04 kelvins

Kelvin is Celsius plus 273.15

Fahrenheit to Celsius: C = (F - 32) x (5/9)
→ Fahrenheit to Kevin: K = (F - 32) x (5/9) + 273.15
→ (94.5 - 32) x (5/9) + 273.15 ≈ 307.87 K

To convert a Fahrenheit temperature to Kelvins, you must follow two steps:

1. Convert the Fahrenheit temp to degrees Celcius.

2. Convert the Celsius temp to Kelvins.

Example: Convert 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit to Kelvins.

1. C = [(F-32) x 5/9] = [(98.6-32)] x 5/9 = 37 degrees C

2. K = C + 273.15 = 37 + 273.15 = 310K *

* The answer is written as a whole number because when adding or subtracting, the rule for significant figures is that the answer is rounded to the fewest decimal places as the measurement used in the calculation. In this case, 37 has no decimal places, so the answer can have no decimal places and must be a whole number.
