Unit Definition (decitonne)
The decitonne is a metric unit of mass or weight equal to 100 kilograms (approximately 220.4623 pounds). This unit is becoming common in international trade; it is the same as the Russian centner, the German doppelzentner, and the French metric quintal.

Unit Definition (qintar [Arab])
The qintar is a traditional Arabic unit of weight, often called the cantar in English. The qintar is the Arabic counterpart of the European quintal. The unit varied in size from market to market and over time. In recent years, the qintar has been interpreted as an informal metric unit equal to 50 kilograms (110.23 pounds); traditional qintars tended to be a few percent larger than this. The qintar is equal to 100 rotls.
