If 100°C is equal to 212°F then why is 1°C not equal to (212/100) or 2.12°F but instead equal to 33.8°F?
In: 0
The scales for each is:
Celsius: 0°C freezing at sea level, 100°C boiling
Fahrenheit: 0°F freezing of brine, 96°F estimation of average human body temperature.
You can see from the start that there won’t really be a clean correlation or interoperability between the two, since their base units are so different.
