Mindbender of the Month: A Scaling Mystery

In the United States of American, we use Fahrenheit.  The rest of world utilizes celcius.

I recently traveled to Canada (from the United States) and I learned something new.  Can you guess what it is?  I might give you a hint.  Ok I will because otherwise I am just a crazy person writing to myself.

0 degrees Celcius is freezing and 32 degrees Fahrenheit is freezing.  So how is -40 degrees Celcius equal to -40 degrees Fahrenheit??????

Enjoy your mind game!

  1. I looked up the formula which explains why this is true, but it still just doesn’t feel right. A good trick question for people.
