In short One chi is 3.75 gram, so to convert chi to gram you multiply by 3.75, and to go back you multiply gram by 0.266667. 2 chi is 7.5 gram, 5 is 18.75 and 10 is 37.5. A chi is 3.75 grams, and ten chi make one cay — also called a luong or a tael — of 37.5 grams. Vietnamese gold shops quote both, small purchases in chi and larger ones in cay, and the ten-to-one relationship makes moving between them trivial. The chi is used in Vietnam, where gold is sold by the chi and the cay.
