If you memorize one ounce as 28 grams you can quickly do the math; 14gm is 1/2oz, 7gm is 1/4oz, 3.5 is  1/8, etc.

 

1oz=28.35gm
7/8=24.8
13/16=23.0
3/4oz 21.25
11/16=19.5
5/8=17.71
9/16=15.95
1/2=14.17
7/16=12.4
2/5=11.34
3/8=10.62
1/3=9.35
5/16=8.85
1/4=7.08
1/5=5.67
3/16=5.31
1/6=4.72
5/32=4.43
1/7=4.05
1/8=3.54
1/9=3.15
1/10=2.83
3/32=2.65
1/15=1.89
1/16=1.77
1/20=1.42
1/32 .886

The streets didnt teach me much, but they did teach me that an eighth of an ounce is 3.5 grams.

This is one of the places I go for doing conversions if by chance my math brain forgets such relationships or does not readily know them. 
 

https://www.convertunits.com

 

I had to convert pounds to grams which I do know, and then for me an uncommon conversion from grams to cups. Although I know 1lb = 16oz = 454gr, I wasn’t in the mood to manually calculate this so I went to the link above. 
 

If you’re curious, I had to calculate the amount of my cure mixture for bacon needed for a 5lb slab of pork belly. ???

 

And if you need to know, I smoked it for about 4 hours and got it to 160F and it didn’t matter. Sliced thick, sliced thin, sliced into cubes… It was incredible. The bomb!

Close enough to 1/8 oz  

Significant digits will baffle you every time.  

Everything to the right of 0.12 only matters in moon shot telemetry.  

 

3.5 g is not 0.123459 oz - 3.500000 g is.
