What is Fahrenheit (°F)?
Definition: A temperature scale where water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F under standard pressure.
History: Proposed by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724, based on three reference points.
Current use: Used primarily in the United States for everyday temperature measurements.
What is Celsius (°C)?
Definition: A temperature scale where water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C under standard pressure.
History: Created by Anders Celsius in 1742, originally called centigrade.

°C = (°F - 32) × 5/9
°C = (°F - 32) ÷ 1.8
Example Conversion
77°F = (77 - 32) × 5/9 = 45 × 5/9 = 25°C
