What Is 180°C in Fahrenheit?
180 degrees Celsius is 356 degrees Fahrenheit.
How to Convert Celsius to Fahrenheit
To convert degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit, multiply by 9/5, then add 32.
For example: 25 °C × 9/5 = 45, and 45 + 32 = 77 °F.
Where You Meet This Number
This is the single most common oven temperature in European, British and Australian recipes — the default for cakes, cookies, brownies and most baking. American ovens have no 356 °F setting, so the practical answer is 350 °F.
A Victoria sponge baked at 180 °C for 25 minutes goes into an American oven at 350 °F for the same time.
What People Get Wrong
If the recipe says "180 °C fan" or "180 °C convection", that is not the same oven. A fan oven runs about 20 °C hotter in effect, so a conventional-oven recipe at 180 °C becomes 160 °C with the fan on, or about 325 °F.

About These Scales
Degree Celsius
The Celsius scale puts the freezing point of water at 0 degrees and its boiling point at 100 degrees at sea level. It is the everyday temperature scale in nearly every country except the United States.
Degree Fahrenheit
On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees, so one Fahrenheit degree is 5/9 the size of a Celsius degree. It remains the standard scale for weather, ovens and body temperature in the United States.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 180 °C the same as 350 °F?
180 °C is exactly 356 °F, so 350 °F is 3.3 degrees cooler. For baking that difference is negligible — recipes are written around the settings ovens actually have.
What gas mark is 180 °C?
Gas mark 4, which British recipes also write as "moderate".
What is 180 °C fan in Fahrenheit?
A fan oven at 180 °C behaves like a conventional oven at about 200 °C, which is 392 °F — so set an American oven to 400 °F.
How do I convert any Celsius oven temperature?
Multiply by 9/5 and add 32, then round to the nearest 25 °F, because that is how American oven dials are marked.
