Magnification is only ever expressed in "times". In writing a report you would write "At 2 times magnification", or if you are putting it on a graph or a figure you simply need to write "X 2" Where the X stands for times.

The common units used to measure magnification are "times" or "x." This indicates how many times larger an object appears under the microscope compared to its actual size.

A magnifying glass is a convex lens that enlarges the image of the object being observed. A diopter is used as the unit of measurement for a magnifying glass.
