Mr Fahrenheit decided the world needed a temperature scale that went from the lowest temperature generally experienced, (which he called "0") to about blood temperature which he called (with a small error) "100". On that scale the boiling point of water turns out to be 212 degrees. Mr Celsius decide that making the freezing point of water 0, and boiling point of water 100 would be better. There are other temperature scales too.

How many degrees fahrenheit make one degree celsius?
A degree Celsius, although it has the same name, is equal to 1.8 degrees on the Fahrenheit scale. You can see that for the freezing and boiling points of water, there are 100 Celsius degrees (100-0) between the two temperatures, while there are 180 (212-32) of the smaller fahrenheit degrees.
What is the Fahrenheit of the 100 degree Celsius?
100 degrees F is equivalent to 37.78 degrees C
What do you mean by 37 degree Celsius?
It's just another temperature scale, it corresponds to about the same as 100 degree Fahrenheit = normal body temperature.
What is larger a Celsius degree or a Fahrenheit degree?
1 Degree of Celsius is larger. The number of degrees Fahrenheit between Water freezing (32) and boiling(212) is 180 degrees. The number of degrees Celsius is 100 degrees. So the Celsius degree has more value.
What a hundred degree Fahrenheit is in centigrade?
100 degrees Fahrenheit = 37.78 degrees Celsius
Transfer 100 degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius?
100 degree Fahrenheit = 37.7777778 degree Celsius.
What is 100 degree Fahrenheit equal to in degree celsius?
100 degrees Fahrenheit is equal to 37.78 degrees Celsius.
What is hottest 100 degree Fahrenheit or 100 degree celsius?
100 degrees celsius
What is colder negative 100 degree celsius or negative 138 degree Fahrenheit?
Negative 138 degrees Fahrenheit is colder than negative 100 degrees Celsius. Negative 100 degrees Celsius is equivalent to negative 148 degrees Fahrenheit.
Which is hotter 100 degree celsius or 160 degree Fahrenheit?
100 degrees Celsius
The Fahrenheit scale has a blank degree size than the Celsius scale?
same size. Between freezing water and boiling water, there are 180 Fahrenheit degrees (32 to 212) and 100 Celsius degrees (0 to 100). So Fahrenheit degrees are smaller, because it takes more of them to cover the same range of temperature. 1 Fahrenheit degree = 5/9 of a Celsius degree (0.555...) 1 Celsius degree = 1.8 Fahrenheit degrees
100 Celsius equal degree in Fahrenheit?
100 degrees of that = 212 Degrees of Fahrenheit.
What is greater 150 degree Fahrenheit and 100 degrees Celsius?
100 degrees Celsius.
What is 100 degrees in Fahrenheit?
100 degree Celsius = 212 degree Fahrenheit
Why 100 degree Celsius is equal to 180 Fahrenheit?
The Celsius scale sets the freezing and boiling points of water at 0 and 100 degrees respectively, while the Fahrenheit scale sets them at 32 and 212 degrees. The conversion formula between Celsius and Fahrenheit is: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. So when you plug in 100 for Celsius, you get 180 degrees Fahrenheit.
Which is greater an increase in temperature of 1 celsius degree or an increase of 1 Fahrenheit degree?
Both scales use "degrees" but they are not the same size.Celsius degrees are larger intervals, so a change in "Celsius degrees" is larger than an identical numerical change in "Fahrenheit degrees."A change of 1 Celsius "degree" is the same change as 1.8 Fahrenheit "degrees", as is seen in the difference between the freezing and boiling point of water. 100 Celsius degrees (0° to 100°C) is the same temperature change as 180 Fahrenheit degrees (32° to 212°F).
100 degrees celsius equals what degree Fahrenheit?
212 degrees Fahrenheit
