This is a collection of temperature conversion formulas and comparisons among eight different temperature scales, several of which have long been obsolete.. Temperatures on scales that either do not share a numeric zero or are nonlinearly related cannot correctly be mathematically equated (related using the symbol =), and thus temperatures on different scales are more correctly described as ...
For an exact conversion between degrees Fahrenheit and Celsius, and kelvins of a specific temperature point, the following formulas can be applied. Here, f is the value in degrees Fahrenheit, c the value in degrees Celsius, and k the value in kelvins: f °F to c °C: c = f − 32 / 1.8 c °C to f °F: f = c × 1.8 + 32
The degree Celsius (°C) can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as a unit to indicate a temperature interval (a difference between two temperatures). From 1744 until 1954, 0 °C was defined as the freezing point of water and 100 °C was defined as the boiling point of water, both at a pressure of one standard atmosphere.
Most scientists measure temperature using the Celsius scale and thermodynamic temperature using the Kelvin scale, which is the Celsius scale offset so that its null point is 0 K = −273.15 °C, or absolute zero. Many engineering fields in the US, notably high-tech and US federal specifications (civil and military), also use the Kelvin and ...

Note that tables of temperature equivalents for kitchen use conventionally round Celsius values to the nearest 10 degrees, with steps of either 10 or 20 degrees between Gas Marks. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Conversion table
Jennaleah “Jenna” Hin, 17, of Henderson, Nevada, was reported missing since Dec. 30 after she reportedly left home following a family dispute
It would be nice to have a chart/table showing intersections, such as where Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) meet at -40.00°. -- Brangifer ( talk ) 19:12, 11 October 2013 (UTC) [ reply ] Add indications of Current vs Archaic -- if possible
