In math, the "units" value is the first place to the left of the decimal point (also ones). Moving left, you have the tens value, hundreds value, and thousands value.
In measurement, a "unit" is the standard size you are using to express a value.
Some SI (metric) units are meters, centimeters, grams, liters, watts, joules, and newtons.
