Celsius is the international and metric scale for temperature, as opposed to the English unit scale of Fahrenheit.
It is named for Anders Celsius (1701-1744), a Swedish astronomer and scientist who developed the early form of the scale.

The measurement conversion between Fahrenheit and Celsius is 1 degree Celsius to 1.8 degree Fahrenheit. That is, there are 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit for every 1 degree Celsius. There are many temperature conversion sites online that will help you determine these conversions quickly.
To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32
To convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius: °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9
Depending on where you live, weather is most likely to be measured in both Fahrenheit and not celsius. Some states require both information.
No, when the temperature in Celsius doubles from 10°C to 20°C, the temperature in Fahrenheit does not double. The relationship between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperatures is not linear, so a doubling in Celsius temperature does not equate to a doubling in Fahrenheit temperature.
The melting point of lead in Celsius is 327.46o. Temperature Fahrenheit = Temperature Celsius(1.80) + 32 Temperature Fahrenheit = (327.46o C)(1.80) + 32 = 621.43o Fahrenheit ==============
To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature and then multiply by 5/9. For a temperature of 36 degrees Fahrenheit, the conversion to Celsius would be (36 - 32) × 5/9 = 2.22 degrees Celsius.
Celsius and Fahrenheit are two common temperature scales used to measure temperature. In Celsius, water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100 degrees, while in Fahrenheit, water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees.
For conversion between fahrenheit, celsius, rankin and kelvin use the following formulas: Fahrenheit = Celsius * 9 / 5 + 32 Kelvin = Celsius + 273.15 Rankine = Fahrenheit + 459.6
