Kelvin to Degrees Rankine (K to °R)

Convert kelvin to degrees Rankine with the formula °R = K × 9/5. Conversion table and worked examples, with JSON API and MCP access.

Formula

°R = K × 9/5

°R = K × 9/5 — reverse: K = °R × 5/9

Non-linear conversion: the formula above is applied directly (no single multiplication factor).

FAQ

What is the formula to convert kelvin to degrees Rankine?

°R = K × 9/5. For example, 300 K = 540 °R.

How do I convert degrees Rankine back to kelvin?

K = °R × 5/9; the degrees Rankine-to-kelvin page applies it directly.

Why is there no single multiplication factor?

Temperature scales have different zero points, so the conversion is an affine formula (scale and offset), not a plain multiplication.
