The gram (g) is the base unit of mass in the metric system, defined as one-thousandth of a kilogram. It is the standard measurement for food portions, postal rates, and small objects in daily life across most of the world. One gram equals approximately 0.0353 ounces, and a standard paperclip weighs roughly one gram.

The stone (st) is a British imperial unit equal to 14 pounds or about 6.35 kilograms, traditionally used in the United Kingdom and Ireland for body weight. When someone in the UK says they weigh 11 stone, they mean 154 pounds, a convention that persists in everyday conversation and medical records. One stone equals exactly 6.35029 kilograms.
