Pound (lb): A Common Imperial Unit of Mass

The pound (lb) is a unit of mass used primarily in the United States and other countries employing the imperial system. One pound is defined as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms. It is commonly used in everyday contexts, such as measuring body weight, food items, and goods.

The pound's widespread use in commerce and daily life necessitates familiarity with its metric equivalents for international communication and trade. Understanding the pound's relation to kilograms facilitates conversions and ensures accurate mass measurements across different systems.

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.
