SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on the mathematical relationship between Celsius (C) and Fahrenheit (F) temperatures, specifically when C equals F. The equation C = (F - 32) × 5/9 can be rearranged to find the point where the two scales intersect. By substituting C with F, the equation simplifies to F = (F - 32) × 9/5, leading to the conclusion that the temperature at which Celsius equals Fahrenheit is -40 degrees.
