The gram (g) is a unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI). It is one-thousandth of a kilogram, making it a smaller unit of mass.
To be more precise, one gram is equal to 0.001 kilograms, or 1 gram = 0.001 kg.
The gram is commonly used for measuring smaller masses, such as the weight of food items, small objects, or quantities of substances in scientific experiments or in everyday life. It provides a more convenient and manageable unit for expressing masses that are not as large as those typically measured in kilograms.
The bekah or bekan was a smaller unit of weight and currency in Biblical Hebrew. It was often associated with the value of metals like silver and had a value that was a fraction of a shekel.
