                              is a scale for measuring temperature, usually abbreviated 
                              as F. The freezing point of water is 32° F, 
                              and boiling point of water is 212° F. The normal 
                              oral temperature is 97.3° to 98.8° F. The 
                              rectal temperature is about 1 F higher than the 
                              oral temperature. To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, 
                              one can use the formula: (degrees in F - 32) multiplied 
                              by 5/9. |  |
