W/m^2 unit does not appear correctly even as base units

[AC_10779194]

Where did I go wrong? Watt should be kg⋅m^2/s^3 

Thus Watt/m^2 should be kg/s^3

So the base unit reflected in the first line is already wrong (and the result off by x 100). I tried again by changing my custom unit in 2nd line and it confirms that the unit went awry somewhere

This is mathcad prime 8

Hi,

In your graphic the 2nd and 3rd line "m" is not a unit label but a variable shown by the black font?

Change the label.

Hi Just realised you may not know how to change label.

Highlight the "m" then Math | Style | Label | Unit

Hi,

[AC_10779194]

Thanks very much, solved. I should change my variables not to overlap and be more careful. Thanks for the inputs.

You have attached the wrong worksheet! The sheet you attached does not show the problem.

From the pic it looks to me that you had defined a variable with name m with m:=1 kg/s and obviously this variable is used instead of the desired unit meter. As Terry already wrote you can tell that not the unit meter is used by the color and style of the "m". If it would be taken as unit meter it would be blue and bold face.
