Quintal (Metric) [cwt]

The metric quintal is a unit of mass equal to 100 kilograms. It is widely used in agriculture and commerce for measuring bulk goods like grains, produce, and livestock feed.

Though called "quintal," it differs from other regional versions like the British hundredweight (cwt). In some countries, especially those using the metric system, the quintal serves as a convenient intermediate unit between kilograms and metric tons.

Summary:

1 metric quintal = 100 kg
Common in farming and trade for easy large-quantity measurements

Gerah (Biblical Hebrew)

The gerah was the smallest unit of weight in ancient Biblical Hebrew measurement systems. It is traditionally considered 1/20 of a shekel.

Since a shekel weighed about 11 grams, a gerah would weigh roughly 0.55 grams. The gerah was used to measure small amounts of precious metals like silver and gold, important in commerce and religious rituals.

Summary:

1 gerah = 1/20 shekel ≈ 0.55 grams
Smallest Biblical Hebrew weight unit
Used for precise measurement of metals and offerings
