Units are so important in working word problems because they matter the most. Units matter more than the numbers of the answers itself. For an example: 11 Kg + 13 kg = 24 Kg. Notice the unit is Kg. According to human error, the answer could be 24 dm or 24 cm. It's wrong because the unit is wrong. Therefore, units matter the most.
