Every measurement needs a value and standard unit. For example, if a person says that he is five four tall, the units are implied (if in the United States, it is generally understood that this is 5 feet and 4 inches, or 64 inches. Any measurements that are made, must include units. Also, this will help if any mathematical functions are performed with the measurements, as it will be evident if the answer is not in the correct dimension / unit. For example, when finding the time it takes, to travel a certain distance at a certain speed, do you divide by speed or multiply? If the units are kept, it will be evident that division is necessary for the units to come out so that the answer has the dimension of time.

What is scientiic notation?
A method of expressing numbers in terms of a decimal number between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of 10. The scientific notation for 10,492, for example, is 1.0492 × 104.
How do you spell algerithm?

What is the method of expressing the accuracy of measured quantities?
One way is for each measurement to be accompanied by an error bound.For example, height = 1.78 metre (± 0.5 cm). The error could also be given in percentage terms. That is more common with calculated values rather than measured ones.
