Convert measurement value in mm units into quantity units

I tried to search on the forum, but couldn't find anything the same what I need.

I want to express quantity value as an expression made of some mm measurment using functions like floor or round.

In Particular I am thinking of "Rectangular Pattern" feature:

I would like to make this "3" dynamic, by using measurment in mm.

In "Change Parameter" dialog I tried to use floor() referencing to some other mm value. I see this:

What can I do with that? I don't have control of value I am referencing to, so I can't change it's units.

To convert to unitless divide by 1 with the same units so in your case 3mm / 1mm will convert to 3. See example below.
