convert 4 ounces to troy ounces
Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

convert 4 ounces to troy ounces

It gives me the same answer and doesn' seem to convert from apothocary to troy or vice versa. Also the apothocary ounce to pound ratio is off. This leads me to suspect the entire conversion chart. It is me?

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apothecaries%27_system:
Wikipedia wrote:The apothecaries' system of weights is a historical system of mass units that were used by physicians and apothecaries for medical recipes, and also sometimes by scientists. The English version of the system is closely related with the English troy system of weights, the pound and grain being exactly the same in both
So apothecary (English version) and troy ounces are indeed equal.
