Frequently Asked Questions
How do you convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?
To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, multiply the temperature by 9/5 and then add 32. The formula is: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. For example, 20°C = (20 × 9/5) + 32 = 68°F.
What's the difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit scales?
Celsius (°C) is a metric temperature scale where water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C. Fahrenheit (°F) is an imperial scale where water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F. The Fahrenheit scale has smaller degrees, so temperature changes appear larger.
What temperature is the same in both Celsius and Fahrenheit?
-40 degrees is the same temperature in both Celsius and Fahrenheit scales. The formula shows: -40°C = (-40 × 9/5) + 32 = -40°F.
How do I convert Fahrenheit back to Celsius?
To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32 from the temperature and then multiply by 5/9. The formula is: °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9.
Why do we use different temperature scales?
Celsius is used in most countries for scientific purposes. Fahrenheit is commonly used in the United States for weather and cooking temperatures.
