The question asks to "convert 3.5 cm $^2$ to 12.25 cm $^2$ ". This means finding the factor or operation that transforms the first area value into the second.

Set up an equation to find the conversion factor.
Let $X$ be the factor by which 3.5 cm $^2$ is multiplied to get 12.25 cm $^2$ .
$3.5\, \text{cm}^2 \times X = 12.25\, \text{cm}^2$
Solve for $X$ by dividing 12.25 cm $^2$ by 3.5 cm $^2$ .
$X = \frac{12.25\, \text{cm}^2}{3.5\, \text{cm}^2}$ $X = 3.5$
State the conversion.
To convert 3.5 cm $^2$ to 12.25 cm $^2$ , you multiply 3.5 cm $^2$ by 3.5.
$3.5\, \text{cm}^2 \times 3.5 = 12.25\, \text{cm}^2$
The conversion is achieved by multiplying $3.5\, \text{cm}^2$ by $\boxed{3.5}$ .
