quantifiable
Able to count
Quantifiable means capable of being measured or expressed in numerical terms.
Scientists seek quantifiable data; managers want quantifiable results.
The word often contrasts with qualities that resist measurement: Love isn't quantifiable.
Something quantifiable can be counted, compared, or tracked over time.
