A square meter is quite a bit larger then a square centimeter. For example the area of a square with sides 1 meter long (about three feet) is a square meter. A square with sides 1 centimeter long (a little less then a half inch) is a square centimeter. You could fit 10,000 square centimeters in 1 square meter. They are similar in that they are both measures of area in the metric system.

Yes, square centimeters and square meters are both units of area measurement. However, a square meter is much larger than a square centimeter because 1 square meter is equal to 10,000 square centimeters.
There are 10,000 square centimeters in a square meter because a square meter is equivalent to 100 centimeters by 100 centimeters.
None. A centimetre is a measure of distance or length while a square metre is a measure of area. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.
There are 10,000 square centimeters in one square meter. This is because there are 100 centimeters in a meter, and when you square that, you get 10,000 square centimeters.
None. A centimetre is a measure of length or distance while a square metre is a measure of area. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid. If you meant to ask how many square centimeters are in a square meter, the answer is 10,000. You can derive this yourself by considering that there are 100 centimeters in a meter and the area of a square is the square of the length of any side.
There are 10,000 square centimeters in one square meter. This is because there are 100 centimeters in one meter, so when calculating the area of a square, you multiply the length by the width to get the total area.
