Should units be included following both numbers in a range?
Should units be included following both numbers in a range?
(OP)
Is there an authority that suggests units should be included following both numbers in a range?
For instance, 125 N to 500 N versus 125 to 500 N ?
I have always used the latter method but recently heard the former method is correct.
Thanks,
David

A space is shown between the number and unit unless the unit is preceeded by the degrees symbol, °. I don't believe I was taught this but have always wrote units in this way because it looks proper to me.
