°R to K
1 Rankine (°R) = 0.555555555556 K. Temperature scales have different zero points, so this is an offset conversion, not a single multiplication.

Every other category is one multiplication. Temperature scales start at different zero points, so they need an offset as well — which is why doubling °C does not double °F.
