Understanding Temperature Scales
Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) are two common temperature scales. Celsius is used worldwide in most countries, while Fahrenheit is primarily used in the United States. Water freezes at 0°C (32°F) and boils at 100°C (212°F) at standard atmospheric pressure.
Conversion Formula
To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit: F = (C × 9/5) + 32
