Excerpt from Agricultural Arithmetic

Mass or magnitude is the simme notion of size. It is indefinite and always suggests the question, How much?

Measurement is the process of determining how much there is of the magnitude. The process of measurement consists in determining the number of units it contains.

A unit is a single thing or a portion of a magnitude into which it is divided in the process of measurement.

Number tells how many units there are in a given mass or magnitude.

Quantity is the complete answer to the question how much there is of the mass or magnitude that is measured.
