A metre is a measure of distance, a denominator may or may not have any measurement unit associated with it. By the most basic principles of dimensional analysis, any comparison between the two is flawed.
A ratio with a denominator of 1 represents a comparison of a quantity to a single unit of measurement. It essentially expresses the value of the numerator in relation to one whole unit, making it equivalent to the numerator itself. For example, a ratio of 5:1 indicates that for every one unit, there are five of the other quantity. This type of ratio is often used to simplify comparisons and illustrate proportions clearly.
It must be the unit of the measurement that you are converting FROM.
Multiply the original quantity by a conversion factor, a fraction containing the desired unit in the numerator and the original unit in the denominator so that the fraction is equal to one.
