Converting 5 hectares

Multiply 5 by 100. That gives 500 ares. A quick sanity check: one hectare is larger than one are, so the number should get bigger — and it does.

Converting 72 hectares

72 × 100 = 7,200 ares. Working backwards, 7,200 ÷ 100 returns 72 hectares, which confirms the factor is applied the right way round.
