About Celsius and Fahrenheit
Temperature scales describe thermal state. Celsius and Fahrenheit use different zero points and degree sizes, while kelvin is an absolute thermodynamic scale beginning at absolute zero. Celsius is a temperature scale on which 0 °C equals 273.15 K and one Celsius degree has the same interval size as one kelvin. Fahrenheit is a temperature scale related to Celsius by the exact formula °F = °C × 9/5 + 32.
Exact Conversion Relationship
(°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F
Apply (°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F: 0 °C → 32 °F
