Celsius is the standard for most of the world. In Celsius the freezing point is 0 degrees and the boiling point is 100 degrees, and this is much easier to remember. In Fahrenheit the freezing point is 32 degrees and the boiling point is 212 degrees.

The main difference is that the Celsius temperature scale starts with the freezing point of water as the 0 mark and the boiling point is 100 degrees, a 100 unit difference. In Fahrenheit the freezing point is 32 degrees and the boiling point is 212 degrees, a spread of 180. One degree Fahrenheit is equal to 5/9 degree Celsius.

Celsius is used to measure temperature and so is Fahrenheit. Though, Celsius is a smaller number than Fahrenheit it still means the same thing. The boiling point in Celsius is 100 while Fahrenheit is 212.
