Fahrenheit to Rankine
Convert Fahrenheit (°F) to Rankine (°R).
Formula and method
result = (value × 0.5555555555555556 + 255.3722222222222 − 0) ÷ 0.5555555555555556.
Temperature scales use both scale factors and offsets. The conversion applies the source and target offsets through the canonical temperature unit.
Worked examples
These examples use the same conversion engine as the calculator.

Frequently asked questions
What is the formula for Fahrenheit to Rankine?
result = (value × 0.5555555555555556 + 255.3722222222222 − 0) ÷ 0.5555555555555556. Temperature scales use both scale factors and offsets. The conversion applies the source and target offsets through the canonical temperature unit.
Can I convert Rankine back to Fahrenheit?
Yes. Use Swap Units when the reverse pair is available in the catalog. The page URL changes to the reverse conversion and the entered value is retained.
Why can a value be rejected?
The engine rejects non-finite values and temperatures below absolute zero,while allowing valid negative readings on scales that support them.
How are displayed decimal places chosen?
Use the Decimal precision selector above the result. Very large or very small results switch to scientific notation when that makes the value easier to read.
