The relative atomic mass of an atom is its mass relative to an atom of carbon-12 (which is 12 by definition). A mole of carbon 12 atoms weighs 12g (which is where the definition comes from). "Gram atomic mass" is just an alternative way for saying the mass of a mole of some atom.

Answer:
Relative atomic mass is 1/12 th the mass of an atom of Carbon (C-12). It is represented in amu.
1 amu = 1.66*10^-27 kg
Gram Atomic Mass is the mass of an element which is represented in grams and is counted to the avogadro's number of atoms of that element.
Numerically both RAM and GAM are same but they are never equal.
Hope this helps.
