You can't, because they aren't. The Fahrenheit and Kelvin scales match at exactly 574.5875 degrees. 255.37 Kelvin is equivalent to 0oF.
To prove or disprove an equivalent, cite the conversion equation which in the Fahrenheit/Kelvin case is:
= = [°F] = [K] × 9⁄5 − 459.67

At what temperature do the Celsius and Kelvin scales have the same numerical value?
At any point in the Celsius scale, the difference between degrees Celsius and degrees Kelvin is 273.15. At no point do the two scales cross.
How many degrees is 13 degrees celsius?
The Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are not absolute scales so the question cannot be answered easily. Absolute temperature is measured in Kelvin (not degrees Kelvin) and 13 deg C is approx 286.15 K.
What are the examples of interval scale?
Time and temperature (not Kelvin) are the two most common interval scales.
How 293 K is 19.85 degrees Celsius?
Different temperature scales have different zero points. The Celsius scale has the freezing point of water as zero degrees. The Fahrenheit has the freezing point of water at 32 degrees. The Kelvin scale has it's zero point at the theoretical coldest temperature. This is equivelent to (note the minus sign) -273.15 degrees Celsius. So the frezing point of water on the Kelvin scale would be (plus) 273.15 degrees Kelvin. Different scales are used for differing purposes. ==========================================
What are the names of the 3 temperature scales?
Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin
What are the two most common scales of temperature?
The two most common temperature scales are... Celsius and Kelvin. *For Canada.*
The temperature of a warm spring day might be 75 degrees Fahrenheit What is that temperature on the Celsius and kelvin scales?
The temperature is 24 degrees Celsius And 297 degrees Kelvin
What is a temperature scale based on absolute zero?
The Kelvin and Rankine scales are the two most common temperature scales that start at absolute zero.
What is temperature measured in?
The absolute measure of temperature is Kelvin. The most common measure is degrees Celsius (or centigrade) but there are also degrees of the Fahrenheit, Reaumur, Rankine, Romer, Delisle and Newton scales.
What do the Celsius and Kelvin temperature scales have in common?
Both are used to measure temperature. A difference of 1 degree is the same in both scales. The only difference is the starting point. The lowest possible temperature (absolute zero) is 0 Kelvin; this is equivalent to 273.15 degrees Celsius. Thus, on the Kelvin scale there are no negative temperatures, by definition.
What is the meaning of degrees celcius?
Celsius - is a scale for the measurement of temperature. Other temperature scales are... Fahrenheit and Kelvin.
At what temperature do the Celsius and Kelvin scales have the same numerical value?
At any point in the Celsius scale, the difference between degrees Celsius and degrees Kelvin is 273.15. At no point do the two scales cross.
What is the common unit of temperature?
The three standard units of temperature is Kelvin, Fahrenheit and Celsius.
Kelvin scale equals how many degrees on the Celsius scale?
The Kelvin and Celsius scales are both ways of measuring temperature. On the Celsius scale, zero degrees is actually 273.15 degrees Kelvin.
What are the common scales in which temperature is usually measured?
Fahrenheit and Celsius and sometimes Kelvin
What is the units of temperature?
Kelvin, Celsius, Fahrenheit are common temperature scales. Celsius and Fahrenheit are measured in degrees.
How many degrees is 13 degrees celsius?
The Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are not absolute scales so the question cannot be answered easily. Absolute temperature is measured in Kelvin (not degrees Kelvin) and 13 deg C is approx 286.15 K.
