Relational_quantity [measured_value]

โ€น Back Next โ€บ
A quantity, the Numerator, can be understood in terms of how it relates to another quantity, the Denominator; the comparison of these two numbers is called the Rate. The nouns in this frame may denote the Rate unless the referent is specifically expressed. This frame is a general description of the relationship between any two dependent quantities; children of this frame may describe situations in which the scale of the Numerator and/or the Denominator is fixed.
