Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions 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. Unit Definition (dekagram) The dekagram is a common metric unit of mass, the dekagram is frequently used in European food recipes. One dekagram is equal to 10 grams, 0.01 kilogram, or 0.352 739 66 ounce. The symbol dkg sometimes used for this unit is incorrect.
