Good to know

1 pound = 0.45359237 kg exactly (1959 agreement), so 1 kg = 2.20462 lb. 1 pound = 16 ounces; 1 stone = 14 pounds.

Indian units: 1 quintal = 100 kg (used for crops and mandi prices) and 1 tonne = 1,000 kg. The traditional tola is 180 grains = 11.6638 g; many jewellers now use a rounded 10 g "tola", so check your bill.

Strictly these are units of mass. A weighing scale shows mass assuming normal gravity, which is what everyday "weight" means.
