Grams are a measure of weight (well, mass if you want to be really specific). Tablespoons are a measure of volume. In order to do a proper comparison you need to know density.
Because metric plans things nicely, a gram is one milliliter of water. 4 tbsp is 59.15ml. So… Yeah, pretty damn close to 60, but again that’s when working with water. I would imagine chili flakes are a little less dense and might throw that calculation off a bit.
