## Rankine to Réaumur

The Rankine temperature scale was proposed by William John Macquorn Rankine in 1859 similarly to Kelvin temperature scale. The zero absolute at Rankine scale is also 0 K, and degree of Rankine is the same than Fahrenheit degree. The Rankine is represented as °R after the value, and sometimes like °RA.

The Réaumur temperature scale was proposed by René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur in 1730, and it is based on the water tristate as well as Celsius, placing the 0 at the point when the liquid water freezes, and the value of 80 at the point when the liquid water boils. Its unit is represented with °Ré, with °Re, and sometimes with °r after the value.

The Réaumur temperature scale values are calculated from Rankine using the formula $$(Rankine - 491.67) × {4 \over 9}$$
