The question your asking is misleading you, to elaborate, a vector is a quantity (magnitude) and a direction. When a unit just has a magnitude, or a quantity, it's called a Scalar. Examples of these are mass, area, speed. When a unit has a magnitude, or a quantity, as well as a direction, it's called a Vector. Examples of these are force, accelerate and velocity.
wait.. quantity doesn't mean just magnitude.. even direction can be said to be a kind of quantity.. and that quantity would be angle.. how much ANGLE .. so don't say vector is a quantity with direction that makes no sense :-/ vector quantity is a quantity.. which has both magnitude and direction!
