Magnetic intensity = Number of turns per length × Current, from H = nI
Put in the dimensions of each part: [L⁻¹] × [A] = [L⁻¹ A].
The SI unit of magnetic intensity is A/m.
These quantities have exactly the same dimensions, a favourite trick in JEE and NEET "which pair has the same dimensions" questions:
