Yes! This number does refer to Fahrenheit. The United States uses Fahrenheit as a unit for temperature. Unfortunately, I don't know the conversion formula. But I do know that zero degrees Celsius is equal to 32 degrees Fahrenheit! Ex: Hi George! The temperature in California was 82 degrees Fahrenheit today. That's about 28 degrees Celsius for you, British folk. Ex: Susan! Can you put the oven on to 350 degrees Fahrenheit for my cake?
