What are Gigagram and Kilopound

A Gigagram (Gg) is a unit of mass in the metric system and is equivalent to one billion grams (1,000,000,000g). It's a less commonly used unit when compared to kilogram or tonne, but it is still important for scientific and industrial applications where large mass measurements are standard.

A Kilopound (klb) is a non-metric unit of mass that equals one thousand pounds (1,000 lbs). Primarily used in the United States, it is a convenient measure for objects that are too heavy to be easily expressed in pounds, such as large vehicles, machinery, or materials in industrial contexts.
