1+mm+%3A+92+cm+
About metric system:
1mm is %281%2F10%29cm….or 1cm=10mm

In this case it means that 1mm on the map represents 92cm in "real-life".
Since 92+cm+=+92%2A10mm++=+920mm
so 1mm on the map represents 920mm+ in "real-life"
or
920mm=%28920%2F10%29cm+=+92cm
so 1mm on the map represents 92cm....
1+mm+%3A+92+cm+ is same as 1+mm+%3A+920+mm
