Temperature is the measure of the relative warmth or coolness of an object.
For measurement of Temperature there are two scales of measurements, one is “Fahrenheit” and the other is “Centigrade” or “Celsius”.
The arbitrary reference taken is the freezing point of water under atmospheric conditions. This point at which water freezes to a solid state is considered as ZERO in Celsius or Centigrade Scale.

In MKS systems, the unit of temperature is degree Centigrade (C)
In FPS system the unit of temperature is degree. Fahrenheit (F)
In SI system the unit of temperature is degree Celsius (C)
10 Centigrade = 10 Celsius.
A temperature reading on one scale can be converted into a reading on the other scale by the following formula:
C=5/9 (F-32)
or
F= 9/5 x (C+32)
where,
C is temperature in Celsius or Centigrade
F is temperature in Fahrenheit.
