Ratio Scale: Definition:

Ratio scale is a type of variable measurement scale which is quantitative in nature. Ratio scale allows any researcher to compare the intervals or differences. Ratio scale is the 4th level of measurement and possesses a zero point or character of origin. This is a unique feature of ratio scale. For example, the temperature outside is 0-degree Celsius. 0 degree doesn’t mean it’s not hot or cold, it is a value.

Ratio scale has most of the characteristics of the other three variable measurement scale i.e nominal, ordinal and interval. Nominal variables are used to “name,” or label a series of values. Ordinal scales provide a sufficiently good amount of information about the order of choices, such as one would be able to understand from using a customer satisfaction survey. Interval scales give us the order of values and also about the ability to quantify the difference between each one. Ratio scale helps to understand the ultimate-order, interval, values, and the true zero characteristic is an essential factor in calculating ratios.

A ratio scale is the most informative scale as it tends to tell about the order and number of the object between the values of the scale. The most common examples of ratio scale are height, money, age, weight etc. With respect to market research, the common examples that are observed are sales, price, number of customers, market share etc.

hope it's help you a lot

A ratio scale is a quantitative scale where there is a true zero and equal intervals between neighboring points. Unlike on an interval scale, a zero on a ratio scale means there is a total absence of the variable you are measuring. Length, area, and population are examples of ratio scale
