Answer:

For example: A ruler is a foot long and usually has inch and centimeter marks. A meter stick is a meter long and usually has foot, inches, and centimeter marks. Scales (depending on what type they are) use pounds, kilograms, ounces, or the like.

Example: the meter, kilogram and second (together with a few other units) together make up the "SI" Metric System of Measurement. Example: the inch, foot, yard and mile are the units of length in the US Standard System of Measurement.

There are seven base units in the SI system:

the kilogram (kg), for mass.

the second (s), for time.

the kelvin (K), for temperature.

the ampere (A), for electric current.

the mole (mol), for the amount of a substance.

the candela (cd), for luminous intensity.

the meter (m), for distance.

Explanation:

Systems of measurement in modern use include the metric system, the imperial system, and United States customary units.
