E.g.

if you want to convert 30^oC to kelvin scale,

on adding 273.15 to it,

it becomes 303.15 K.

Did that help?

Hey,idk what is temp coefficient...stil trying..when u say per degree,it means th quantity (say,x unit)(its numerator) is measured at 1 o C(per degree means temp is in den0minator)..or at 274 kelvin...so u simply divide that quantity(x unit) by 274 n write it at per kelvin,instead of per degree celsius.. :) bt tel me what is temp cofficient

If your doubt is how to convert per ^oC to per K as in units then it can be done directly since size of 1 unit of ^oC is same as size of 1 unit of K.
