Unitful & unitless value in Seeq calculation

[Christopher Chin]

Addition and subtraction calculation involving signals with relative scale such as temperature is explained in the Units of measurement (UOM) KB article here.

What happens when unitless scalar is introduced in calculation with unitful signal? 

In the example below, mathematically Signal 1, 55.47% is equivalent to Signal 2, 0.5547. However, the result is different when Signal 1 and Signal 2 each add scalar value of 5.

Signal 1 (with % UOM)
55.47% + 5 = 60.47%

Signal 2 (Unitless)
0.5547 + 5 = 5.5547
