I know that this thought will not answer your question, but it might help a
little.

On the extremely rare occasions that I need to convert between lengths,
areas and volumes, I use the '10 - 11 - 12 - 13 Rule' that goes like this:

10 metres               ~ 11 yards
10 square metres    ~ 12 square metres
10 cubic metres      ~ 13 cubic yards
