SI units are fun!
My car needs 7 liters of gas per 100 km.
7 liters / 100 km =
7 dm³ / 100 km =
0.007m³ / 100,000 m =
0.000007 m² =
0.07 mm²

I know this is a joke, but could help myself: you can’t always just cancel units like this.
It’s more like 0.007 m^3^(fuel burned) / 100,000 m(travelled)
Can’t really cancel those.
