The Three Major Scales
- Celsius (°C): Used worldwide. Water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C. Also known as Centigrade.
- Fahrenheit (°F): Used in the US. Water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F. 180 degrees separate the two points.
- Kelvin (K): Used in science. 0 K is "Absolute Zero," where molecular motion stops. No negative numbers.
Conversion Formulas
°F = (°C × 1.8) + 32
°C = (°F - 32) / 1.8
K = °C + 273.15
Quick Reference
Room temperature is approx 20-22°C (68-72°F). Normal body temperature is 37°C (98.6°F). A hot day is 30°C+ (86°F+).
