Centigrade-scale: A thermometer scale in use by scientists of all countries and in general use in many. The temperature of melting ice is 0º; the temperature of condensing steam is 100° ; the degrees are all of equal length. To reduce to Fahrenheit degrees multiply by 9 and divide by 5, and add 32 algebraically, treating all readings below 0º as minus quantities. For its relations to the Reamur scale, see Reamur Scale. Its abbreviation is C., as 10º C., meaning ten degrees centigrade.
