Well, clearly we use "degrees Kelvin"...i.e. units of "absolute temperature...."

Explanation:

...beyond that we use convenient units of pressure and volume. For chemists, these are typically mm*Hg, where 1*atm-=760*mm*Hg...and "litres"...1*L-=1000*cm^3-=10^-3*m^3....

(P_1V_1)/T_1=(P_2V_2)/T_2...of course we have to use the units consistently....
