What are Milligram and Centigram

Definition of Milligram

A milligram is a unit of mass in the metric system, equivalent to one-thousandth (1/1000) of a gram. It is often used in contexts where precise measurements of very small masses are required, such as in pharmaceutical dosages or in nutritional information on food packaging.
