750 fehrenheit is equal to approximately 677.594 kelvin.
To convert 750 fehrenheit to kelvin, the temperature must first be converted to celsius and then to kelvin by adding 273.15. This conversion is necessary because kelvin is an absolute scale starting at absolute zero, unlike fehrenheit which is based on a different reference.

Conversion Formula
The formula to convert fehrenheit (°F) to kelvin (K) is: K = ((°F – 32) × 5/9) + 273.15. This works by first removing the 32 degrees offset that exists between the fehrenheit and celsius scales, converting the temperature to celsius by multiplying the difference by 5/9, then shifting the scale to kelvin by adding 273.15, which aligns with absolute zero.
Step-by-step for 750 °F:
- Subtract 32: 750 – 32 = 718
- Multiply by 5/9: 718 × 5/9 ≈ 398.889
- Add 273.15: 398.889 + 273.15 = 672.039 kelvin
(Note: slight variation due to rounding)
Conversion Example
- Convert 500 fehrenheit to kelvin:
- 500 – 32 = 468
- 468 × 5/9 ≈ 260
- 260 + 273.15 = 533.15 kelvin
- Convert 212 fehrenheit to kelvin:
- 212 – 32 = 180
- 180 × 5/9 = 100
- 100 + 273.15 = 373.15 kelvin
- Convert 32 fehrenheit to kelvin:
- 32 – 32 = 0
- 0 × 5/9 = 0
- 0 + 273.15 = 273.15 kelvin
- Convert 1000 fehrenheit to kelvin:
- 1000 – 32 = 968
- 968 × 5/9 ≈ 537.778
- 537.778 + 273.15 = 810.928 kelvin

Conversion Definitions
Fehrenheit: Fehrenheit is a temperature scale where water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees under standard atmospheric pressure. It uses the degree symbol (°F) and is mainly used in the United States and a few other countries for everyday temperature measurements.
Kelvin: Kelvin is the SI unit for temperature, starting at absolute zero (0 K), the theoretical point where molecular motion stops. It does not use degrees, but simply K, and is commonly used in scientific contexts where precise temperature measurement is needed.
Conversion FAQs
Why does the fehrenheit to kelvin conversion require subtracting 32 first?
The fehrenheit scale is offset so that 0 °F doesn’t correspond to 0 °C or 0 K. To align with the kelvin scale, which begins at absolute zero, the 32 degrees offset must be removed first, converting fehrenheit to celsius. This step ensures the conversion applies the correct relative temperature before shifting to kelvin.
Can I convert fehrenheit to kelvin without going through celsius?
While the conversion formula appears to go through celsius by subtracting 32 and multiplying by 5/9, this is inherent in the relationship between these scales. Direct formulas use the same process implicitly, so you can’t avoid this step without losing accuracy.
What happens if I input a negative fehrenheit value into the conversion tool?
Negative fehrenheit values represent temperatures below the freezing point of water. The conversion formula still applies correctly, resulting in kelvin temperatures above absolute zero as long as the fehrenheit temperature isn’t below absolute zero (-459.67 °F). The tool will output the correct kelvin value accordingly.
Why does the kelvin temperature always have a decimal after conversion?
Temperatures converted from fehrenheit to kelvin involve fractions because the conversion factors (5/9 and adding 273.15) produce decimal values. This allows for precise temperature representation, which is important in scientific measurements and calculations.
Is kelvin used outside scientific fields?
Kelvin is mostly used in science, engineering, and technology where absolute temperature measurements are required. Everyday temperature readings, like weather forecasts, rarely use kelvin, favoring celsius or fehrenheit instead because they are easier to relate to human experience.
