Detailed explanation-2: -In other words, the reference quantities in the present SI are the definitions of the base units: the second, meter, kilogram, ampere, kelvin, mole, and candela.

Detailed explanation-3: -The SI is founded on seven SI base units for seven base quantities assumed to be mutually independent, as given in Table 1.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are seven base units measurements namely meter, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, mole, and candela. The most common among these are kilograms, seconds, and meters.
