Metric System:

Degree Celsius (ºC) is the formula used to tell the temperature in the metric system, 0ºC being the freezing point and 100ºC being the boiling point, the metric systemalso includes measurements such as cm, metres, litre, ml e.t.c.

All but three nations have not adopted the metric system(The United States, Burma and Liberia)

Imperial System:

Fahrenheit (ºF) is the formula used to tell the temperature in the Imperial System, 32ºF being the freezing point (0ºC) and 212ºF being the boiling point (100ºC). The Imperial systemis used by only three nations (United States, Liberia and Burma) although the change from the Imperial System to Metric has left many elderly from approx. 50+ years old not learning the Metric System. The Imperial system use measurements such as Inch, yard, foot, feet, fathom, pint and gallon e.t.c.

0ºC = 32ºF add 1.8ºF for 1 more unit of ºC

e.g.

1ºC = 33.8ºF

2ºC = 35.6ºF

3ºC = 37.4ºF

e.t.c.
