Do you know if Celsius and Fahrenheit readings are ever the same? If so, at what temperature? Keep checking back to find the correct answer.

No, I don't think they're ever the same.

I appreciate your response, but you're wrong. There is one temperature at which they are the same.

Noo!! Until 1954, 0 °C on the Celsius scale was defined as the melting point of ice and 100 °C was the boiling point of water under a pressure of one standard atmosphere. Today, the unit “degree Celsius” and the Celsius scale are, by international agreement, defined by two points: absolute zero, and the triple point of specially prepared (VSMOW) water.

I don't understand your answer so I can't really comment on it. According to my source, however, there is one temperature at which they are the same.

I was a bit confused at first on whether you were asking because you didn't know the answer but judging from your responses you were asking to see if anybody else does and that you already knew. The answer would be at -40 they meet at this point
