How to Convert degree Celsius to degree Fahrenheit
1 C = 33.8 F
1 F = -17.22222222222222 C
Example: convert 10 C to F:
10 C = 10 x 33.8 = 338 F
degree Celsius
Definition: Degree Celsius (°C) is a unit of temperature on the Celsius scale, which is defined so that the freezing point of water is 0 °C and the boiling point is 100 °C at standard atmospheric pressure.
History/origin: The Celsius scale was originally proposed in 1742 by the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius. He originally defined 0 °C as the boiling point of water and 100 °C as the freezing point, but this was later reversed to its current definition.
Current use: Degree Celsius is the standard unit of temperature used in most of the world, except for the United States and a few other countries. It is used in scientific research, weather reporting, and everyday life.
degree Fahrenheit
Definition: Degree Fahrenheit (°F) is a unit of temperature on the Fahrenheit scale, where the freezing point of water is 32 °F and the boiling point is 212 °F at standard atmospheric pressure.
History/origin: The Fahrenheit scale was developed in 1724 by the German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit. He based his scale on the freezing point of a brine solution (0 °F) and the approximate body temperature of a human (96 °F, later adjusted to 98.6 °F).
Current use: Degree Fahrenheit is primarily used in the United States, its associated territories, and a few other countries for weather reporting and everyday temperature measurements.
