What is the ratio of degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit?

Answer 1

By comparative size, each "Celsius degree" represents 1.8 times as much change in temperature as a "Fahrenheit degree." However, the two scales cannot be directly compared because they have different beginning points: 0° Celsius is at the freezing point of water, while 0° Fahrenheit is the freezing point of brine (32 Fahrenheit degrees lower).

Answer 2

The ratio between degrees Celsius (°C) and degrees Fahrenheit (°F) is 5:9. This means that for every 5°C change in temperature, there is a corresponding 9°F change.
