About 3°F to °C
Fahrenheit (°F) is the temperature scale used in the United States and a few other countries. Celsius (°C) is the standard scale in most of the world and in all scientific contexts. A useful mental shortcut: subtract 30 from the Fahrenheit value and halve it. This gives a rough Celsius estimate — accurate to within a few degrees for common temperatures. Oven temperatures in American recipes are given in Fahrenheit. A standard baking temperature of 350°F equals about 177°C (Gas Mark 4). Converting correctly prevents over- or under-cooking.
