Fahrenheit

Fahrenheit 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. The Fahrenheit scale is based on a system where the freezing and boiling points of water are defined as 32 and 212 degrees respectively.

Converting Fahrenheit to Celsius

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

Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) * 5/9

Converting Fahrenheit to Kelvin

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

Kelvin = (Fahrenheit - 32) * 5/9 + 273.15
