Step-by-Step Calculation

°C = (°F - 32) × 5/9
  1. Start with 742°F
  2. Subtract 32: 742 - 32 = 710
  3. Multiply by 5/9: 710 × 0.5556 = 394.44
  4. Result: 742°F = 394.44°C

Quick Mental Conversion

For a rough estimate, subtract 30 then halve. For example, 742 °F: minus 30 is 712, halved is 356. The exact answer is 394.44 °C.
