Simple Program In Java (Eclipse) That Converts Fahrenheit To Celsius

I've made a simple program in Java (Eclipse) that converts Fahrenheit to Celsius.The class is:

Java Code: package ehu.student;
public class ConversorTemperaturas {
/*--------------------------------------------------------------*/
/*Clase que dado una temperatura en Fahrenheit la canvierte en C*/
/*--------------------------------------------------------------*/
public float farenheit2celsius (float d){
float celsius, aux;

[code]...

When I write t.farenheit2celsius(25.6), appears the following error: "The method farenheit2celsisus(float) in the type ConversorTemperaturas is not applicable for the arguments (double)"If i change in the class the type float for double there is not problem. Why can't i use the type float?
