I'm trying to find a word that describes both the unit and value of something. The unit types and values are arbitrary.
For instance "10 meters" and "52 inches" are examples of (the word). "10 liters" and "40 watts" are examples of (the word), etc.
Is there such a word? I can't think of it.

I would think the word quantity might suffice, but the dictionary strongly supports the word measurement. From Macmillan:
So, "10 liters" is a measurement. So are "40 watts," "12 acres," and "7.5 light years."
