FUNDAMENTAL QUANTITY AND THEIR UNITS

There are 7 basic quantities and their units , often called International system (systeme international) of units or simply called SI units

Multiple of units and sub-multiple of units (see table above)

EXAMPLES

1Kk= 1 Kilokelvin

= 1000kelvin

while  1Gm=1 Gigameter =1000000000meter

Meanwhile

1ns = 1 nanoseconds =0.000000001seconds
