How Do You Compare Celsius To Fahrenheit Scales?
Celsius and Fahrenheit are two of the common scales on which temperature is measured. Celsius, also known as Centigrade, was invented by Anders Celsius in 1742 and is used throughout most of the world. Fahrenheit was developed in the early 1700s by Daniel Fahrenheit and tends to be the temperature scale of choice in the United States. Temperatures can be converted between Celsius and Fahrenheit using a simple formula. Remember the defining points on the Celsius scale, 0 and 100. Water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius and boils at 100 degrees Celsius. The corresponding points on the Fahrenheit scale are 32 degrees Fahrenheit and 212 degrees Fahrenheit, respectively. Convert temperatures measured in degrees Celsius to Fahrenheit by multiplying the temperature by 1.8 and then adding 32. For example, to convert the temperature of 34 degrees Celsius to Fahrenheit, multiply it by 1.8 to get 61.2, and then add 32 to get 93.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
