the united States and some other small country many people have never heard of.
Fahrenheit remains the official scale for the following countries and territories: the Bahamas,Belize, the Cayman Islands,Palau, and the United States and its associated territories. Everyone else uses Celsius.
Both scales were developed in the early 18th Century. The Fahrenheit scale was proposed by Daniel Fahrenheit. The freezing point of brine set the 0 point. 180 degrees separated the freezing point of water (32 degrees) from the boiling point (212 deg). Anders Celsius introduced the Centigrade scale in which the freezing point was 0 deg and the boiling point was 100 degrees. Centigrade was later renamed Celsius. The Celsius scale is the international standard, used by most countries and scientific communities in all countries. There are some countries, however, that have not fully adopted the Celsius scale, so the Fahrenheit scale remains in use today.
In countries that use the long scale (based on powers of a million) like Europe:it is ninety two thousand million or in some countries ninety two milliardIn countries that use the short scale (based on powers of a thousand) like USAit is ninety two billion
Fahrenheit is a temperature scale named after the physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736), who proposed it in 1724. Today, the scale has largely been replaced by the Celsius scale; it is still in use for non-scientific purposes in the United States and a few other countries such as Belize,[1] and is sometimes given in weather forecasts and used by older people in the United Kingdom.
The US and its territories.
a Fahrenheit scale is a temperature scale they use in the united states
Zero degrees on the Celsius scale equals thirty two degrees on the Fahrenheit scale.
Celsius and Fahrenheit are different scales; most countries use Celsius, a few countries use Fahrenheit instead.Celsius and Fahrenheit are different scales; most countries use Celsius, a few countries use Fahrenheit instead.Celsius and Fahrenheit are different scales; most countries use Celsius, a few countries use Fahrenheit instead.Celsius and Fahrenheit are different scales; most countries use Celsius, a few countries use Fahrenheit instead.
The Fahrenheit scale was the primary temperature standard for climatic, industrial and medical purposes in most English-speaking countries until the 1960s. In the late 1960s and 1970s, the Celsius (formerly Centigrade) scale was adopted by most of these countries as part of the standardizing process called metrication (or metrification). Only in the United States and a few other countries (such as Belize) does the Fahrenheit system continue to be used, and only for non-scientific use. Most other countries have adopted Celsius as the primary scale in all use.
Most scientist now use the Celsius scale.
When you are in the US or its territories.

Because most developed countries have adopted the SI system under which temperature is measured on the Celsius (or Kelvin) scale.
No. Fahrenheit is the dinosaur of temperature scales. Kelvin is probably the best scale but it is not very well known. It is an absolute scale which means that 2 deg K is twice as hot as 1 deg K. It is the temperature scale used in the sciences. The second best is the Centigrade or Celsius scale since it is directly related to the Kelvin scale. It is used in most countries.
It is not true. The majority of world countries use the Celsius unit for temperature. The US is still committed to using the Fahrenheit among other British units of measurements.
