1 degree on the Celsius scale is equal to 1.8 degress on the Fahrenheit scale...that is, one Celsius degree covers more temperaure range than one Fahrenheit degree.
It is somewhat like using a long measuring stick or a short measuring stick to measure the same distance. In one case you will have more sticks, in the other case, fewer, but the distance is still the same. The systems were devised by different people in different places to measure the same thing. There are at least two other "measuring sticks" for temperature - Kelvin and Rankin, used mostly for scientific measurements.
If you want to know an actual temperature comparison you will have to use the formulas:
F = 9/5C + 32
or
C = 5/9F - 32
