What are the four types of measurements?

Answer 1

According to Stanley Smith Stevens, the four levels of measurement are:

• nominal - for example counting balls of different colors
• ordinal - where the measured values have an order - for example small, medium, large
• interval - where a distance is defined between the measured values - for example, Celsius temperature
• ratio - where we can divide values and get a meaningful answer - for example length and weight

the 4 types of measurements are mass,volume,distance,and temperature

Answer 2

There are 8 basic units of measurement in the International System of Units.

1. Length with a unit of metres, m
2. Mass with a unit of kilograms, kg
3. Luminosity with a unit of Candela
4. Time with a unit of seconds, s
5. Electrical current with a unit of Amperes, Amp
6. Temperature with a unit of Kelvin, K
7. Amount with a unit of moles, mol
8. Volume with a unit of liter, L

We can use other units by converting these units to other systems eg Celsius = Kelvin - 273

Volume is a derived unit eg length cubed
