About Grams
The gram (g) is the basic metric unit of mass, equal to one thousandth of a kilogram. It is universally used in cooking, nutrition, postal services, and scientific measurement. Almost all food packaging worldwide shows nutritional information per 100 g. A US nickel coin weighs exactly 5 g, a teaspoon of sugar about 4 g, and a standard paperclip approximately 1 g. In chemistry, the gram is central to molar mass: one mole of carbon-12 atoms weighs exactly 12 g. Postal rates are typically scaled per gram or per 100 g.
About Quarters
A quarter (qr) in the avoirdupois system equals 28 pounds or one quarter of a hundredweight - approximately 12.70 kg. Historically, quarters were used in British trade for measuring grain, wool, and other bulk commodities. The British quarter of grain (28 lb) was the standard purchase quantity at markets and mills throughout medieval and early modern England. In the US, the term 'quarter' sometimes refers to a quarter of a short hundredweight (25 lb) rather than the British 28 lb.
