The formula
°F = °C × 9 ÷ 5 + 32 fan °C = conventional °C − reduction
Recipe books round oven temperatures, and their tables can differ by about 10 °C around gas marks ½ and 3. That is too small to matter for most cooking.
What to watch out for
Pick the scale the recipe uses, then read off the setting for your oven. For temperatures outside the kitchen, use the temperature converter.
