About converting Celsius to Fahrenheit
Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) are temperature scales with different zero points, so they convert with a formula rather than a single multiplier: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32.

The scales
The scale used by most of the world: water freezes at 0 °C and boils at 100 °C at sea level; 0 °C = 273.15 K.
Used for: Weather, cooking and medicine worldwide.
Water freezes at 32 °F and boils at 212 °F at sea level, so a 1 °F step is 5/9 of a 1 °C step.
Used for: Weather and cooking in the US.
−40 is the one temperature that reads the same in Celsius and Fahrenheit.
