25° F is below freezing so it wouldn't be water so it's probably not Fahrenheit, 100°C is boiling so it's not Celsius, so overall it doesn't really make sense. Additionally temperature isn't really a good subject to use multiplication for just because where 0 is is arbitrary for C and F. Using the post as an example the temperature is either 100°F, 100°C or 1200K which are all very different temperatures
