Properties   are the qualities or attributes that, taken together, are usually peculiar to an object.  
🗑
Measurement   a comparison. a process of comparing a property to a well-defined and agreed-upon referent. The well-defined and agreed-upon referent is a standard called a unit.  
🗑
The most two common systems of units are:   The English System and the Metric System (Le Systeme International d' Unites) or SI.  
🗑
Length   Metric Unit: meter Symbol: m  
🗑
Mass   Metric Unit: kilogrm Symbol: kg
