Precision and interpretation

Examples are rounded for display. Keep the unrounded factor for intermediate calculations and round the final answer to match the precision of the original measurement. Extra decimal places do not make a measured quantity more accurate.

These are mass conversions. Physical weight is a force and also depends on gravitational acceleration. Check whether a source uses avoirdupois, troy, or fluid units.

Common questions

How do I reverse this conversion?

Divide the target-unit value by the forward factor, or use the inverse converter. Multiplying by the same factor again is not the inverse operation.

Why can the displayed answer differ slightly?
