What are Decigram and Ton-long

Definition of Decigram

A decigram (dg) is a metric unit of mass equal to one-tenth of a gram. It's a lesser-used unit since grams and kilograms are more common for such measurements. However, a decigram can be crucial in fields that require precise weight measurements such as pharmaceuticals or scientific research where even small variations can be significant.

Definition of Ton-long

A ton-long, also known as a long ton or British ton, is a unit of weight commonly used in the United Kingdom. It is equivalent to 2,240 pounds or 1,016.0469088 kilograms. The long ton is larger than the more commonly used short ton, which is 2,000 pounds in the United States, and it is used to measure heavier objects like ships or large quantities of materials.
