Relative scalar

Okay kiddo, so imagine you have a bunch of numbers like 10, 20, 30, and 40. These numbers are called scalars. A relative scalar is just a number that is measured based on something else.

Let's say you have a toy car and it can go 10 miles per hour. That's the scalar. But if we're talking about how fast the car is compared to a person riding a bike, then the relative scalar would be different because the bike can go faster than the toy car.

So a relative scalar is just a scalar that is measured based on something else, instead of just by itself.
