When do you need oz → g?
Medical reports in kg vs lb, gym weights, baby formula in ounces and gold in carats — weight conversion spans health and shopping. For example: 70 kg shows as 154.3 lb on a US chart; a 12 oz (about 340 g) formula can equals 0.75 jin — normalize units before comparing prices.
Where do oz and g come from?
Metric is anchored to the kilogram (defined by the Planck constant since 2019); imperial uses the pound, 16 ounces or 7,000 grains each. The 1959 agreement fixed 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg. The Chinese jin (500 g = 10 liang) dates back to Qin-Han weights.
