We consider a relationship between two sets of extensions of a finite finitely additive measure μ defined on an algebra \( \mathfrak{B} \) of sets to a broader algebra \( \mathfrak{A} \). These sets are the set ex S μ of all extreme extensions of the measure μ and the set H μ of all extensions defined as \( \lambda (A) = \hat{\mu }\left( {h(A)} \right),\,\,\,A \in \mathfrak{A} \), where \( \hat{\mu } \) is a quotient measure on the algebra \( {{\mathfrak{B}} \left/ {\mu } \right.} \) of the classes of μ-equivalence and \( h:\mathfrak{A} \to {{\mathfrak{B}} \left/ {\mu } \right.} \) is a homomorphism extending the canonical homomorphism \( \mathfrak{B} \) to \( {{\mathfrak{B}} \left/ {\mu } \right.} \). We study the properties of extensions from H μ and present necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of these extensions, as well as the conditions under which the sets ex S μ and H μ coincide.
