Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Fahrenheit scale is an interval scale. It has equal intervals between each degree of temperature, but it doesn't have a true zero point. This means that temperature can be compared and measured accurately, but there is no true starting point or absolute value of zero temperature on the scale. Therefore, it cannot be considered as a ratio scale. It is also not an ordinal or nominal scale.
