Ounces to Grams at a glance

These are avoirdupois ounces (weight), not fluid ounces (volume) — a distinction that causes real errors in recipes.

Both directions from one number

You only need to remember one factor, because the reverse is its reciprocal:

g = oz × 28.3495
oz = g × 0.0353   (or divide by 28.3495)

If a result looks about right but is off by a large multiple, you have almost certainly multiplied where you should have divided — checking the direction against the table above catches it immediately.

Rounding, and how precise to be

Converting does not create accuracy that was not in the original measurement. If someone tells you a distance in whole ounces, the converted figure is only as good as that starting estimate — quoting it to four decimal places implies a precision nobody measured.

A practical rule: keep roughly the same number of significant figures you started with, and round only at the end. Rounding at each intermediate step compounds the error, which is how a chain of conversions drifts away from the right answer.
