STEP 5: The reference unit is the unit that the base unit can be mapped as a conversion factor.

For example, Consider a base unit is Dozen, and the reference unit is Pieces. Under the Conversion, the conversion should be 12. 1 dozen is equal to 12 pieces. Decimal Place Rounding is to set the number of decimals for the unit.

NOTE:

• The reference unit will be the unit that is used for conversion. 

• Conversion times the reference unit will be base unit.

• Ex: Base = Dozen, Reference unit = pieces, Conversion = 12
  12*pieces=dozen

• 100*cm=meter

• 1000*grams=kilogram
