The Conversion Formula
Temperature conversions between celsius and fahrenheit use specific formulas rather than a simple multiplication factor, because temperature scales have different zero points. Use the converter above or the reference table for quick lookups. For example, converting 25 °C gives 77 °F, and converting 100 °C gives 212 °F.
About celsius
The Celsius scale is named after Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius. In 1742, he created a scale based on 0 for the boiling point of water and 100 for the freezing point. This was later inverted to the familiar 0-100 scale we use today by Carl Linnaeus and others. For a long time, it was known simply as 'centigrade' (meaning 100 steps) until it was officially renamed Celsius in 1948 to honor its inventor. celsius are commonly used in Weather forecasting (Global), Cooking and baking (Global), Medical body temperature, and Scientific research, Computer hardware monitoring.
Water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C.
About fahrenheit
The Fahrenheit scale was developed by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724. He was the first to use mercury in thermometers, making them much more accurate. He defined 0°F as the temperature of a specific ice-salt brine mixture, and roughly 96°F as the human body temperature. While replaced by Celsius in most countries during the 20th century, Fahrenheit remains the official scale of the United States, valued by some for its more granular degrees for weather. fahrenheit are commonly used in Weather forecasting (US), Oven temperatures (US), Home thermostats (US), and Pool and spa settings, Old medical texts.
Room temperature is roughly 70°F.
