About Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) Units

Celsius (°C) is the most commonly used temperature unit in the world for everyday weather, cooking, and science measurements. In this scale, 0°C is the freezing point of water and 100°C is the boiling point. For example, normal body temperature is around 37°C, room temperature is about 20–25°C, and winter temperatures in many countries can drop below 0°C. Celsius is widely used because it is easy to understand and directly linked to the properties of water. Fahrenheit (°F) is a temperature unit mainly used in the United States for weather forecasts, cooking, refrigerators, and household measurements. In this scale, water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F. For example, a typical room temperature is around 68–72°F, and normal body temperature is about 98.6°F. Many people prefer Fahrenheit because it gives more precise temperature steps for daily weather and comfort levels.
