Fahrenheit

The Fahrenheit scale is a temperature scale commonly used in the United States. It was developed by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in the early 18th century. On the Fahrenheit scale, the freezing point of water is 32 degrees and the boiling point of water is 212 degrees at standard atmospheric pressure.

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

Fahrenheit = (Celsius * 9/5) + 32

Conversely, to convert a temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the following formula:

Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) * 5/9

The Fahrenheit scale is still widely used in the United States for weather forecasts, cooking, and everyday temperature measurements.
