A quantitative measurement is one in which a particular quantity is measured. This can be as simple as measuring how long something is with a ruler or tape measure, or how heavy something is with a set of scales.
This is to be distinct from a qualitative measurement in which you are only interested in the presence of absence of a particular condition.
You use instrumentation to determine a quantitative measurement.
You can use your 5 senses to determine qualitative measurements.
Numerical measurement or observation of numerical relation.
Heart rate is generally a quantitative measurement. You can give a specific number (quantity) for it. You could express heart rate as a qualitative measurement by simply using comparative phrases such as fast, faster, slow slower, dangerously high, dangerously low, etc. Often the quantitative measurement is mapped to the qualitative terms to give a quantitative range that can map to a qualitative term to express the impact of that type of heart rate.
Quantitative means measured objectively, the measurement results in numbers.
data or information that is measured numerically rather than qualitatively.
This kind of data is qualitative, meaning it is an observation of a particular facet of the observed thing. Quantitative date is numerically-based.

They are dissimilar - not alike. "she was tall" is qualitative. "she was 2.01m tall" is quantitative. It embodies a quantity or measurement.
