Facts about Milligram
Basic facts: A milligram is a unit of weight and mass that is based on the kilogram, which is the International System of Units (SI) base unit of mass. It is equivalent to 1/1,000,000 kilograms or 1/1,000 grams.
History: As already mentioned, the milligram is based on the SI unit of weight and mass, the kilogram. It uses the “milli”, SI prefix as a SI unit, to denote that it is a submultiple of the base unit. The prefix – “milli” indicates a submultiple with respect to the gram, the kilogram.
Use: The milligram is widely used in many applications as a submultiple of an SI base unit, from widespread use in scientific labs, among other areas, to everyday use to measure the weight or mass of substances, foods, etc.
Fact about Pound
Basic facts: A pound is a unit of mass used in the United States customary and imperial systems of measurement. Its symbol is [lb.]. The common pound used today is the international avoirdupois pound. It is defined as precisely 0.45359237 kilograms. One avoirdupois pound is equal to 16 (sixteen) avoirdupois ounces.
History: Prior to the international avoirdupois pound that is widely used today, numerous different definitions of the pound were used throughout history. The pound descended from the Roman libra. The avoirdupois system was commonly used in the 13th century. In 1959, it was updated to its current form. This system was based on a physical standardized pound that used a prototype weight. This prototype weight could be divided into a number that had three even divisors [8, 4, 2] i.e., 16 ounces.
Use: In the United States, the pound as a unit of weight is widely used, often for measuring body weight. Many versions of the pound existed in the past in the UK, and although the United Kingdom largely uses the International System of Units, pounds are still used within specific contexts, such as labeling of packaged foods [by law the metric values must also be displayed]. The United Kingdom also often uses both pounds and stones when defining body weight, where a stone is comprised of 14 (fourteen) pounds.
