Describe how the basic measurements of length, volume, and mass were determined in the

the basic measurements of length, volume, and mass are 1 meter, 1 meter³  and 1kilogram.

One 10-millionth of the distance from the North Pole to the equator would equal one meter.

A cube with sides of one meter has a volume of one meter³.

The mass of 1,000 cubic centimeters of water is very close to (and was originally intended to be exactly) one kilograms.

but today a more precise way to define is available in which:

1 meter is defined as the distance traveled by light in 1/3×10⁸ sec.

The weight of a specific platinum-iridium prototype held by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures is defined as 1 kg.

moreover these measurements are man made and are not absolute and therefore many new units of measurement can be defined as long as they are fundamentally same everywhere.
