Acceleration by definition is the change in velocity per change in unit of time.
That is Δv/Δt

Velocity is in meters per second, time is in seconds. When you actually calculate acceleration, you get (m/s)/(s). You could move the s in the velocity to the bottom or cross multiply, but in the end you get m/s^2
