* Celsius uses a scale where the freezing point of water is 0 degrees and the boiling point is 100 degrees.

* Fahrenheit uses a scale where the freezing point of water is 32 degrees and the boiling point is 212 degrees.

This means a one-degree change in Celsius is a larger temperature difference than a one-degree change in Fahrenheit.

To be specific, a one-degree change in Celsius is equivalent to a 1.8-degree change in Fahrenheit.
