About this deal

The avoirdupois pound (abbreviation: lb) is a unit of mass used in the US customary and imperial systems of measurement, and is descended from the Roman libra (hence the common abbreviation - lb). The international pound (lb) is defined as 0.45359237 kilograms (exactly). The international pound is divided into 16 ounces. The international The Babylonians invented the talent, as the basic unit of weight, and, based on their sexagesimal (60-based), divided into equal parts in terms of that number. There are 1000 liters in a cubic meter, so the mass of 1 cubic meter of water is approximately 1000 kilograms or 1 metric ton.

In 1795 the kilogram was first used in English and was defined as the mass of one litre of water. This provided a simple definition but when used in practice it was difficult as trade and commerce often involved large items. Weighing a large object using large quantities of water was inconvenient and dangerous. As a result, an object made out of a single piece of metal was created equal to one kilogram. This platinum-iridium metal, called the International Prototype Kilogram, has been kept in Sèvres, France since 1889. The unit pounds originated from the Roman ‘libra’ (hence the abbreviated ‘lb’). The libra, which is Latin for scales or balance, was an ancient Roman unit used to measure mass and was equivalent to approximately 328.9 grams. The libra was originally split into 12 ounces (or unciae). The Greeks used the same weight measurement as the Babylonians, but the Romans changed it. Their basic unit of weight was the 'uncia,' from which the English word 'ounce' is originally derived. The uncia is a twelfth part of the 'pes,' which is the Roman 'foot —' our word inch is also derived from 'uncia.' The Romans used the same word for ounce, which they measured using a technique taken from the Arabs. It is the only SI base unit with the prefix as part of its name (kilo). The word is derived itself from the French 'kilogramme' which was itself built from the Greek 'χίλιοι' or 'khilioi' for 'a thousand' and the Latin 'gramma' for 'small weight'.This online conversion calculator will convert among different units of weight or mass. For more specific calculations use Conversions are performed by using a conversion factor.By knowing the conversion factor, converting between units can become a simple multiplication problem: Not to be confused with a number of other definitions, the most common is international avoirdupois pound. The avoirdupois pound is defined as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms and is divided into 16 avoirdupois ounces.

This measure has come down to us as part of the British Imperial System of Weights and Measures, which is also used in the U.S. This system of units was first defined in the British Weights and Measures Act of 1824, which was later refined and reduced. The system came into official use across the British Empire. In 1855, a fire destroyed the Houses of Parliament in London, where the standards for these weights were kept. A standards bureau was set up with prototypes for the imperial system at that time. The pound (abbreviation: lb) is a unit of mass or weight in a number of different systems, including English units, Imperial units, and United States customary units. Its size can vary from system to system. The most commonly used pound today is the international avoirdupois pound. The international avoirdupois pound is equal to exactly 453.59237 grams. The definition of the international pound was agreed by the United States and countries of the Commonwealth of Nations in 1958. In the United Kingdom, the use of the international pound was implemented in the Weights and Measures Act 1963. An avoirdupois pound is equal to 16 avoirdupois ounces and to exactly 7,000 grains. A CD or DVD is 12 centimeters (120 millimeters) across. The diameter of the center hole is 15 millimeters.

Translated into English as the 'ounce,' King Offa, who lived at the end of the 8th century, accepted the silver ounce but then ran short of silver. The Dirhem was halved to 222 grains for the penny, twenty of which made the ounce as before, and twelve ounces the pound in silver. The kilogram or kilogramme, (symbol: kg) is the SI base unit of mass. A gram is defined as one thousandth of a kilogram. Conversion of units describes equivalent units of mass in other systems. The kilogram is the weight of one liter of water. One thousandth of a kilogram is a gram. All multiples and submultiples of the base units are in powers of ten. Fractional units are not halves, but tenths, unlike the customary practice for fractions of inches, and derived units are related to the base units by multiples of powers of ten, unlike what is the case with twelve inches making a foot. Basing all units on multiples of ten makes conversion from one unit to another particularly easy. The pound is a unit of mass (acceptable for use as weight on Earth) and is part of the imperial system of units. It has the symbol lb.

To convert among any units in the left column, say from A to B, you can multiply by the factor for A to convert A into grams then divide by the factor for B to convert out of grams. Or, you can find the single factor you need by dividing the A factor by the B factor. Although there's no precise standard for doorknob heights, they're often about 1 meter above the floor.For the Arabs, a silver Dirhem was determined by 45 full grown barley grains. Ten Dirhems made a Wukryeh of 450 grains, which we call an ounce from the Latin "uncia" or twelfth, which name is used genetically for such a class of weight or volume. One of the most common uses of the pound is in measuring the mass / weight of human beings or animals. When introduced, sports athletes such as boxers or wrestlers are described by their weight in pounds before any other characteristic as it helps people visualise how big / powerful they are. Metric weights have a very different history. Metric weights, the gram, the kilogram, were developed by scientists in 18th century France. In 1791, the French parliament imposed the use of the metric system on the country, and it is now used in Continental Europe and many other parts of the world. The metric system was not particularly popular in revolutionary France, and Emperor Napoleon, who came just after the Revolution, abolished it. But, when Napoleon lost power, the system was reinstated.
