Where is this conversion used?

Temperature conversions matter in cooking, meteorology, medicine, chemistry, and international travel. Celsius is the standard in most countries, while the United States uses Fahrenheit; Kelvin is used in scientific contexts. Meteorologists, chefs, doctors, chemists, and HVAC engineers all work with temperature conversions. A quick mental shortcut: to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, double the Celsius value and add 30 (for an approximation); for precision, multiply by 9/5 and add 32.

Helpful tip
