The formula used (5/9) which is the Celsius-to-Fahrenheit multiplier. The correct multiplier for K to °F is (9/5). Example: 373.15K (boiling point) was giving ~2°F, now correctly gives 212°F.

PR Title
Fix Kelvin to Fahrenheit conversion formula
Summary
Corrected the Kelvin to Fahrenheit conversion formula by replacing the incorrect multiplier
(5/9)with the correct(9/5)value.Description
The Kelvin to Fahrenheit conversion formula previously used the multiplier
(5/9), which is incorrect for this conversion and belongs to the Celsius conversion formula.The formula has now been corrected to use
(9/5)so temperature values convert accurately.Example:
373.15K(boiling point of water) was previously giving approximately2°F212°FThe changes are as follows:
