Units explained
Centigram
A centigram (cg) equals 0.00001 kilogram, or 0.01 gram.
From the SI prefix 'centi-' (from Latin 'centum', hundred).
Used in pharmacology and analytical chemistry.
Part of the original metric system of 1795.
Ratti
The ratti equals about 0.1215 gram, the smallest traditional South Asian weight.
Based on the seed of the Gunja plant (Abrus precatorius), or 'raktika' in Sanskrit.
Gemstones and gold in Indian and South Asian jewelry.
One of the oldest weight units of the Indian subcontinent, later standardized.

Real-world example — Hair-width scale measurements
A 70-centigram measurement (about the diameter of a human hair) is the kind of value materials engineers regularly express in adjacent micro-scale units like rattis for direct comparison across supplier datasheets.
70 cg × 0.0823045267 = 5.7613168724 ratti
Real-world example — Paper and film thicknesses
At the thickness of office paper (roughly 3 centigrams), converting between sub-millimeter units is routine for packaging and printing buyers comparing quotes from metric and US suppliers.
3 cg × 0.0823045267 = 0.2469135802 ratti
Real-world example — Plastic-film thickness alternates
A 150-centigram plastic film converts cleanly to rattis — useful for packaging buyers reconciling supplier datasheets across metric and US measurement systems.
150 cg × 0.0823045267 = 12.3456790123 ratti
