There are 100 centimeters in 1 meter. To convert centimeters to meters, you divide by 100. Therefore, to convert 920 centimeters to meters, you would divide 920 by 100. This would give you 9.2 meters.
Multiply the two together to give you square meters, and then convert the square meters in to square feet.
There are roughly 1600 meters in a miles, so your 1500 meter time multiplied by 1600/1500, or 16/15, would give you a mile time. For example, a 6:00 1500 time would be a 6:24 mile.
Well, if the things you're measuring are the size of books or pencils, centimeters will give you more accurate readings. A centimeter is just a 1/100th of a meter. With the meter as a base unit, we use different prefixes to talk about measuring things of different sizes. For example: "milli-" for bullets and drill bits; "centi-" for boxes and walking sticks; "kilo-"for distances between towns.
Any two numbers that, if multiplied, give one - for example, 1 meter x 1 meter, 0.5 meters x 2 meters, 1/3 meter x 3 meters, etc.
