The Celsius scale, which was known as the centigrade scale.
commonly used? well fahrenheit and celsius/centigrade(same thing) for weather temperature. Then there is kelvin used in technical/scientific situations and thats about it for common usage so 3 is the answer. There are up to seven different temperature scales but only 3 are used commonly
The temperature scale that has no negative values is the Kelvin scale, because it has its zero point at the lowest possible measurable temperature (absolute zero).The similarly based scale using Fahrenheit intervals (degrees) is the Rankine scale. The Kelvin scale starts at (the minimum) absolute zero. (0 K = -273 oC)
Use the Kelvin scale.
The Rankine scale is one of the temperature scales used when an absolute temperature scale is needed. The Rankine scale is useful in calcluations of oil or gas present in an oil or gas reservoir (one of the factors in the equations is the ratio of standard temperature to formation temperature; generally add 460 to the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit to obtain degrees Rankine).
Most people I know like to use the Richter scale.
There are a few temperature scale that science use offten. The most common scale is a centigrade scale.

a Fahrenheit scale is a temperature scale they use in the united states
Celsius. Most of the world except the US uses celsius.
Centigrade
Celsius, kelvin, Fahrenheit

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.
