No. Although both confusingly use the term "degree", the two intervals are not the same. A change of a number of degrees in Celsius would be a much greater numerical change in Fahrenheit. In terms of actual values, a "degree" in Celsius is 1.8 times as large an interval as a "degree" in Fahrenheit.
Explanation
In Fahrenheit, freezing is 32° and boiling is 212° so there are 180 degrees in between. In the Celsius system there are only 100 (larger) degrees between those marks, so the ratio is 180/100 or 1.8 Fahrenheit degrees = 1 Celsius degree.
Example : If a temperature changes by 5°C, from 20°C to 25°, the corresponding Fahrenheit temperatures increase by 9°F, from 68°F to 77°F.

Is one degree celsius hotter than 1 degree Fahrenheit?
1 degree Fahrenheit is -17.22 degrees Celsius. 1 degree Celsius is 33.8 degrees Fahrenheit. It seems that 1 degree Celsius is hotter.
What is 1 degree Celsius equal to in Fahrenheit?
1 degree Celsius equals a change of 9/5 = 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit and 1 degree Fahrenheit equals a change of 5/9 = 0.555555555 degrees Celsius.
The Fahrenheit scale has a blank degree size than the Celsius scale?
same size. Between freezing water and boiling water, there are 180 Fahrenheit degrees (32 to 212) and 100 Celsius degrees (0 to 100). So Fahrenheit degrees are smaller, because it takes more of them to cover the same range of temperature. 1 Fahrenheit degree = 5/9 of a Celsius degree (0.555...) 1 Celsius degree = 1.8 Fahrenheit degrees
Celsius compare to Fahrenheit?
Above -40, a number in Celsius is hotter than the same number in Fahrenheit.
What temp do Fahrenheit and Celsius converge?
The temperature when both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are the same is - 40 degrees.
How doe a temperature change of one Fahrenheit to a change of 1 Celsius?
If you know how much Fahrenheit use; (F-32)X 5/9 = Celsius (example; 1° Fahrenheit = -17.2° Celsius) If you know how much Celsius use; C x 9/5 + 32 = Fahrenheit (example: 1° Celsius = 33.8 ° Fahrenheit) There is one temperature where they are the same. (-40C = -40F)
Is a change of temperature of 1 Celsius degree the same as a change of 1 Fahrenheit degree?
No, it is not. A Celsius degree equals 1.8 Fahrenheit degrees.
What temperature Fahrenheit equals Celsius?
At -40 Celsius and Fahrenheit are the same temperature.
At what temperature will Fahrenheit and Celsius the same?
Negative 40 degrees is the temperature that will be the same on Fahrenheit and Celsius scales.
What is the same between fahrenheit and celsius?
The answer is: -40. 40 degrees below zero is the same in Celsius and Fahrenheit. (233.15 kelvin)
What is the Fahrenheit to Celsius ratio?
1 Fahrenheit degree = 5/9 of one Celsius degrees 1 Celsius degree = 1.8 Fahrenheit degree There is no constant ratio between the °F and °C numbers for the same temperature, because their zeros are at different temperatures. A Celsius number less than -40° is colder than the same Fahrenheit number. A Celsius number more than -40° is warmer than the same Fahrenheit number. And -40° is the same actual temperature in both °F and °C.
1 Fahrenheit how many Celsius?
1 degree Fahrenheit is equal to 17.2222222 or 17.22 degrees celsius. __________________________________________________________ 1 Fahrenheit = 5/9 degree Celsius
What is the Fahrenheit equivalent of 1 Celsius?
1 degree Celsius = 33.8 degrees Fahrenheit
Is Fahrenheit the same as Celsius?
No.
Why is 105 the same temperature weather it is expressed in celsius or Fahrenheit?
It is not the same:105 degrees Fahrenheit = 40.56 degrees Celsius.105 degrees Celsius = 221 degrees Fahrenheit.
A temperature that is the same when measured in celsius and Fahrenheit?
-40 Degrees is the same both in Fahrenheit and Celsius (don't ask why.)
How do degrees Celsius relate to degrees Fahrenheit?
The Celsius scale has its 'zero' at the same temperature as 32 on the Fahrenheit scale, and each Celsius degree is the same size as 1.8 Fahrenheit degrees.
