K to °F
1 kelvin (K) = -457.87 °F. Temperature scales have different zero points, so this is an offset conversion, not a single multiplication.

why temperature is different
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.
