| 1.64 | system of quantities | ||
| Set of quantities together with a set of non-contradictory equations relating those quantities. | |||
| Note: | Ordinal quantities, such as Rockwell C hardness, are usually not considered to be part of a system of quantities because they are related to other quantities through empirical relations only. | ||
