Answer 2

Answer:

Both Mohinder and Alam did not use the appropriate measurement while purchasing goods.  

Explanation:

• Any commodity should be measured using regularized standards. It should be weighed against a standardized fixed value compromised of a relevant well-defined unit and a numerical value.
• The units should be standardized like the SI units in order to avoid discrepancies or error while measuring.
• A litre is a standardized unit, so Veena has brought with the right measurement.
• Mohinder who brought a ribbon by measuring a mark on the table should have used an exact meter scale or tape to measure the ribbon.
• The mark on the table is not standardized as it might lead to small discrepancies or error.
• Alam who brought vegetables measured using stones also will not be able to get the correct weight of the vegetables because it cannot be matched exactly with a stone.
• He should have brought in kilograms measured using a weighing scale.
