Historical reasons. Actually, there were yet other scales, especially Reaumur; fortunately, it disappeared.

Unfortunately, some countries still use Fahrenheit; it will take a while until they adopt the international standard. The scale that should be used nowadays is Centigrade; or (for scientific work) Kelvin.

What is the units of temperature?

Kelvin, Celsius, Fahrenheit are common temperature scales. Celsius and Fahrenheit are measured in degrees.


Where will the three scales of temperature meet?

The scales of temperature cannot all meet, as the Kelvin and Celsius scales have the same size degrees but different zero points. Absolute Zero is 0° Kelvin, and equal to -273.15 °C or -459.67 °F. Because the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are offset by 32° at their starting points (freezing point of water), the two scales do have a common numerical point at -40° (minus 40 degrees). (see related question)


What are three types of temperature scales?

Fahrenheit, centigrade, kelvin.

Fahrenheit, Celsius, or Kelvin.


How many types of temperature scales?

There are three main temperature scales commonly used worldwide: Celsius (also known as centigrade), Fahrenheit, and Kelvin. Each scale has a different zero point and different intervals for measuring temperature.

Is kelvin and Fahrenheit the same?

No, they're completely different temperature scales.


Why are two different temperature scales needed?

Two different temperature scales, such as Celsius and Fahrenheit, are used because they provide different reference points and have historical significance in different parts of the world. Celsius is commonly used in scientific and international contexts, while Fahrenheit is more commonly used in the United States. Having different scales allows for easier communication and understanding of temperature values in different regions.
