Weight

 

1 kg (Kilogram)                 =                   1000g (grams)

1 lb                                  =                   16oz (ounces)

1 oz (ounce)                     =                   28g (grams)

 

e.g. 1 lb 1 oz = 16 oz + 1 oz = 17x28

 

Liquid

 

1 Gallon                           =                   8 pints

1 pint                               =                   4 gills

1 litre                               =                   1000 mills

142 mills                          =                   ¼ pint/1 gallon

 

e.g. 1 ¼ pint   =   5gills     =                   710 mills.

 

         1 pint          =          4 gills          =       5 gills          =          142

         ¼ pint         =          1 gill                                                  x5
