Problems finding out the area of a 0.5mm circle.

Problems finding out the area of a 0.5mm circle.
After doing the following equation 3.14 x 0.25 x 0.25, I get an area of
0.1963mm and I need the answer to be in nanometers thus I convert it,
with the result being 196300 nano meters
However when I try working out the same area (0.5 circle) using nano
meters in the initial equation instead of mm (3.14 x 250,000 x 250,000)
I get a bigger area of 196250000000 nano meters, which converts to
196300mm!
Why is the area of a 0.5mm circle bigger when I work out the area in
nanometers rather than mm?
I also need to know how many 100 nano meter circles I can fit into a
500,000 nanometer (0.5mm) circle, and I assume I simply divide
196250000000 by 100?
Thanks for your help
