Unit Definition (quarter (ton) [US])
The quarter (ton) [US] is a traditional unit of weight equal to 1/4 hundredweight. In the U.S., "quarter" is also used informally to mean 1/4 ton, or 500 pounds (226.80 kilograms).

Unit Definition (ounce)
The ounce is a traditional unit of weight. The avoirdupois ounce, the unit commonly used in the United States, is 1/16 pound or about 28.3495 grams. The avoirdupois ounce also equals 175/192 = about 0.911 457 troy ounce or 437.5 grains. The word ounce is from the Latin uncia, meaning a 1/12 part, because the Roman pound was divided into 12 ounces. The word "inch," meaning 1/12 foot, has the same root.
