It may refer to a formula with the letters changed to

F = 1.8C + 32

where C is the temperature in degrees Celsius

and

F is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.

It is used mostly in maths as an exercise in manipulating formulae. Nowadays few people use the Fahrenheit scale - (major exception: those from the US with little scientific background).
