Sir taught us about measurements.

There are two types of measurement units.

Metric = Meter, Gram, Litre.

British = Ton, Gallon, Mile.

Sir also taught us about Least Count.

Least Count is the smallest change which can be measured using a measuring instrument.

For example, if there are 10 divisions in one centimeter of the main scale its least count = 1/10 = 0.01 cm
