Celsius (abbreviations: C, or °C, or deg C): also known as centigrade, is a SI metric scale and unit of measurement for temperature and used by most countries in the world. It is named with regard to the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701–1744), who developed a similar temperature scale.
Fahrenheit (abbreviations: F, or °F, or deg F): is a temperature scale based on one proposed in 1724 by Amsterdam-based physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686–1736), with regard to whom the scale is named.
How to Convert Degree Celsius to Degree Fahrenheit
Example: How many degree Fahrenheit are equivalent to 26.4 degree Celsius?
As;
1 degree Celsius = (1.8*X)+32 degree Fahrenheit
26.4 degree Celsius = Y degree Fahrenheit
Assuming Y is the answer, and by substitution principle;
Y equals ( (1.8*26.4)+32 ) over 1, where X is substituted by 26.4
(i.e.) Y = ( (1.8*26.4)+32 ) / 1 = 79.52 degree Fahrenheit
Answer is: 79.52 degree Fahrenheit are equivalent to 26.4 degree Celsius.
