Description

Dram (dr): An Apothecaries' Unit of Mass

The dram (dr) is a historical unit of mass originating from the apothecaries' system. It equals 1/16 of an ounce or approximately 1.7718 grams. While largely replaced by the metric system in modern contexts, the dram still appears in pharmacy, historical texts, and is commonly recognized in the food and beverage industry, particularly for measuring servings of liquor.

Understanding the dram's historical use enhances comprehension in both medical history and niche measurements in culinary and commercial applications. Its legacy continues as a cultural and specialized reference point in various regions.

Hundredweight (UK): Traditional British Mass Measure

The hundredweight (UK), symbolized as cwt (UK), is defined as 112 pounds or approximately 50.802 kilograms. It is part of the British Imperial system and is used primarily in the UK and some Commonwealth countries for measuring large weights of goods, such as coal, meat, and raw materials.

Despite the metrication of most sectors, the long hundredweight remains in use for specific traditional and trade purposes, especially where historical or regional standards are preserved.
