49 The ratios we created are called unit factors because they are equivalent to 1 unity.

50 –Any number multiplied by 1 will be equal to itself.

51 The ratios we created are called unit factors because they are equivalent to 1 unity. –Any number multiplied by 1 will be equal to itself. –As a result, we can multiply any quantity by a unit factor to change the unit of measure without changing the physical quantity.
