Answer:

C. 930 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

First, recall the standard conversion between cm and ft.

$1\text{ ft}=30.48\operatorname{cm}$

Therefore:

$\begin{gathered} (1*1)ft^2=(30.48*30.48)cm^2 \\ =929.03\operatorname{cm}^2 \\ \approx930\text{ square cm} \end{gathered}$

The correct choice is C.
