Physics Trivia : The weight measured by the scales is mass or weight?

The weight measured by the scales is mass or weight?








The weight is the mass of the body. 

There are many people who misunderstand for the scales to measure gravity because the scales utilize gravity in order to measure mass. It is a mistake. 
The size of power by gravity is measured and is divided by gravitational acceleration which comes to the same scale of mass.
Moreover, because weight is "power", it cannot be said weight is the value of the substance
