Questions
How many grams are in one tola?
1 tola = 11.6638 g (180 grains, 3/8 of a troy ounce). It is the traditional Indian unit for gold. India officially went metric in 1956, so jewellers now bill in grams; ‘10 grams’ is the usual gold price quote.
What is a quintal?
In India a quintal is 100 kg. Mandi and MSP prices for wheat, paddy and other crops are quoted per quintal; 10 quintals make one tonne.
How many pounds is 1 kg?
1 kg = 2.20462 lb, and 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg exactly. A stone (used in the UK for body weight) is 14 lb, about 6.35 kg.
