It's not. Mass is a single, base unit in any
practical, widely used system of units. Only the old Imperial system uses 2units to express mass. Example 2Pound 4 Ounces. This can also be expressed as 2.25 Pound if it is decimalized. So you see there is no need to use 2units of measure unless you choose to. Another example: 3kilo 140milligram is the same amount as 3.140 Kilo. The beauty of the Metric system which most of the world uses is always decimalized and quantities are never expressed using 2units like the British do. Everything in the Metric system is a multiple of 10, making it dead easy to express quantities in decimal form using only 1unit, never 2 units.

What does units agree mean?
In mathematics, two quantities are said to be in units agreement if they have the same units of measure. For example, if two quantities are both measured in meters, then they are in units agreement. If one quantity is measured in meters and the other is measured in centimeters, then they are not in units agreement.
What Two example of common units for mass?

what is it
How do you compare two lengths that are measured in different sized units?
You can mutiply or divide the units to find the answer.
What is 1 mg of data time in minutes?
A milligram is a measure of mass and, as far as I am aware, data time is not measured as a mass. Consequently, conversion between the two is not valid.A milligram is a measure of mass and, as far as I am aware, data time is not measured as a mass.
