Cannot implicitly convert type 'double' to 'float'

Question

I'm doing a simple program for converting temperatures with Kelvin, Celsius and Fahrenheit, but I'm getting this error when doing anything with kelvin:

Cannon implicitly convert type 'double' to 'float'

The line the error occurs:

public static float FahrenheitToKelvin(float fahrenheit)
{
    return ((fahrenheit - 32) * 5) / 9 + 273.15;
}

The button click:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var input = float.Parse(textBox1.Text);
    float FahrenResult = FahrenheitToCelsius(input);
    textBox2.Text = FahrenResult.ToString();
    float KelvinResult = FahrenheitToKelvin(input);
    textBox3.Text = KelvinResult.ToString();
}

And the test method I'm trying to make:

[TestMethod]
public void fahrenheitToKelvinBoiling()
{
    float fahrenheit = 212F;
    float expected = 373.15F; // TODO: Initialize to an appropriate value
    float actual;
    actual = Form1.FahrenheitToKelvin(fahrenheit);
    Assert.AreEqual(Math.Round(expected, 2), Math.Round(actual, 2));
    // Assert.Inconclusive("Verify the correctness of this test method.");
}

Answer 1

Try this.

    public static float FahrenheitToKelvin(float fahrenheit)
    {
        return ((fahrenheit - 32f) * 5f) / 9f + 273.15f;
    }

This works because it changes the compiler from recognizing the 32 5 and so on as doubles. The f after the number tells the compiler it is a float.
