Does
1184mm[sup:2qru3zor]2[/sup:2qru3zor] = 1.184m[sup:2qru3zor]2[/sup:2qru3zor] or 1.184m[sup:2qru3zor]6[/sup:2qru3zor]

Thanks,

6 dimensions would be crazy. The first one is right. Squared units are for surface area, area, etc. 2 dimensions; whereas Cubed units are for volumes, three dimensions, etc.

Um... no it's not.

1 m = 1000 mm, so 1 m[sup:1zhw30tg]2[/sup:1zhw30tg] = 1000000 mm[sup:1zhw30tg]2[/sup:1zhw30tg]

Ah, you're right, I guess I didn't understand the question.
