Fahrenheit (Fahrenheit scale) - this is a temperature measurement scale invented by the German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724. It is practically used only in the USA and other countries, such as Canada, where, for example, household appliances or industrial commercial equipment manufactured in the USA are supplied. The Fahrenheit scale is measured in degrees Fahrenheit (°F).

Formula for converting Fahrenheit to Celsius:

Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, during his experiments with temperature, chose 0 °F as the temperature of a mixture of ice, water, and salt, while 96 °F was initially considered the human body temperature, but it was later corrected to 98.6 °F.

Celsius (Celsius scale) - this is the most widely used scale in the world, invented by the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius in 1742. The Celsius scale is used everywhere, from medicine to everyday household purposes, and is considered more logical for the metric system.
