No, that's wrong. If you convert 328K to Celsius, you get 55C. You can't add arbitrary precision to a number. The correct calculation for a whole degree is:
54C => (54 + 273)K => 327K
If you want a single decimal place of precision:
54.4C => (54.4 + 273.2)K => 327.6K
You can then subtract 273.2 to convert back, and you get the 54.4C you started with.
