Celsius

Celsius (°C) is a unit of temperature measurement in the metric system. It is commonly used in scientific and everyday contexts to measure temperature.

The Celsius scale is based on the freezing and boiling points of water, where 0°C is the freezing point and 100°C is the boiling point at standard atmospheric pressure.

To convert temperatures from Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the following formula:

Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) * 5/9

For example, if you have a temperature of 68°F and want to convert it to Celsius:

Celsius = (68 - 32) * 5/9 = 20°C

Celsius is widely used in weather forecasts, cooking, and scientific research due to its simplicity and consistency in the metric system.
