#100^@=27,415" K"#
#27^@"C"=74,02.05" K"#
#580^@"C"=159,007" K"#

Explanation:

Step 1. Find the Celsius to Kelvin conversion formula
#1^@ "C"=274.15" K"#

The two conversion factors that you can multiply are
#(1^@ "C")/(274.15" K")# or #(274.15" K")/(1^@ "C")#

Step 2. For each Celsius, multiply by conversion factor
(Note: ignoring significant figures)

#100^@"C"xx(274.15" K")/(1^@ "C")=27,415" K"#

#27^@"C"xx(274.15" K")/(1^@ "C")=74,02.05" K"#

#580^@"C"xx(274.15" K")/(1^@ "C")=159,007" K"#
