What is the function of time?

We cannot multiply a 'thing' (quantity, number?) by time unless we
have already divided it by time. T must already be there in the
denominator if we want to multiply somthing by T. The primery function
of time is (or we introduce time) to divide a 'quantity'. All
calculations become easy if the division tells us number of primary
objects in the 'thing' (quantity? system? set?). The primery object
(every physical object) is subject-matter of science. In general what
it means is, if the numerator is not an integer (number of primery
objects) and it is a continuous quantity (like mass, length, energy
etc.) then we are compelled to use the 'unit of time' as the primary
object and this primary object (the unit of time) contains no
information; it is always devoid of information. When we multiply by
time, any 'thing' that we have already divided by time, we do not
create any new information regarding change in the out side world. I
wish to know if there is any exception to this rule.

That's a totally new concept: time in each numerator!

Nor does this convoluted (dimensionless) text, really.
