v0.1.70.5556K
1 Rankine = 0.5555555556 Kelvin
Conversion Formula
491.67 °R = 273.15 K
273.15 K = 491.67 °R
How to Convert Rankine to Kelvin
To convert Rankine to Kelvin, use the formula: K = °R × 5/9
Kelvin = Rankine × 1
Examples: 491.67 °R = 273.15 K (freezing point), 671.67 °R = 373.15 K (boiling point)

About These Scales
°RRankine
Rankine is an absolute temperature scale like Kelvin, but uses Fahrenheit-sized degrees. It starts at absolute zero (0R = -459.67F). It is used in some engineering fields, particularly in the United States.
KKelvin
Kelvin is the SI base unit of temperature. It starts at absolute zero (the coldest possible temperature, -273.15C) and uses the same increment size as Celsius. It is widely used in science and engineering.
