    They are not two different temperatures. They are two different

    descriptions of the same temperature, using different-size degrees

    and different scales. A lot like "60 miles per hour" and "96.6 kilometers

    per hour" ... the same speed.

    In the case of the temperatures, the tags " °F " and " °C " show that the

    units are different. And even though it's not obvious from the descriptions,

    they also start counting at different temperatures.
