Mina (Biblical Greek)

What is a mina (biblical greek)?

The Greek mina was about 0.34 kg, one-sixtieth of a talent (100 drachmae).

Origin of the mina (biblical greek)

Adopted from Near-Eastern metrology into the Greek system.

Where it is used

Hellenistic and New Testament commerce.

When and where it was developed

A standard sub-unit of the Greek talent.

Metric / SI

Centigram

What is a centigram?

A centigram (cg) equals 0.00001 kilogram, or 0.01 gram.

Origin of the centigram

From the SI prefix 'centi-' (from Latin 'centum', hundred).

Where it is used

Used in pharmacology and analytical chemistry.

When and where it was developed

Part of the original metric system of 1795.

Mina (Biblical Greek) to Centigram conversion formula

Note: this conversion uses a generally accepted modern value. Historical and regional definitions of this unit varied across times and places.

The relationship between minas (biblical greek) and centigrams:

1 mina = 34000 cg
1 cg = 2.941176e-5 mina

To convert minas (biblical greek) to centigrams, multiply the value in minas (biblical greek) by 34000. To reverse, multiply centigrams by 2.941176e-5.

100 × 34000 = 3400000 cg

Real-world example — Macro-to-micro scale comparison

2 minas (biblical greek) of measurement converts to a very large number in centigrams — useful in materials science when comparing bulk-sample dimensions to feature-level surface specs.

2 mina × 34000 = 68000 cg

Real-world example — Macroscopic to microscopic

One mina (biblical greek) equals a million centigrams. Optical engineers calculating coherence length compare macro-scale path lengths with micro-scale wavelength differences using exactly this conversion.

1 mina × 34000 = 34000 cg

Real-world example — Sub-meter precision

A 0.001-mina (biblical greek) (1 mm) tolerance equals 1,000 centigrams — useful for surface-finish specs, where macro-scale dimensions are given in the larger unit but feature roughness in the smaller.

0.001 mina × 34000 = 34 cg
