Converting km to miles, including paces

My training plan has a mixture of metric and us measurements, and I'm not sure I've converted everything correctly. Math is not this girls strong suit. Looking to see if I did it right. Here is what was on the plan for today's tempo/interval/repitition run:
2 mile warmup
2x2 miles at 8:29 pace w/ 2 min recovery
3x1km at 4:51 pace w/ 2 min recovery
4x200m at :55 pace w/ 200m recovery
1 mile cooldown
I run most of my speed work on the treadmill to make it easier to keep track. I'm clear on the 2 mile warm up and 2x2 miles at 8:29 pace. Would the 3x1km at 4:51 be .62 mile at 7:50m/mile pace (x3)? And then the 4x200m at :55 pace, would that be a 7:30 m/mile pace for the 200's?
Are there good sources for me to refer to make this conversion faster/easier?
I'm hoping I calculated it out right. :P

I'm getting 7:22 pace for the 200s, but otherwise the calculations look good to me.
I use this site for that sort of thing:

Check your treadmill; the one's at my gym if I put the distance in KM the paces go to KPH and it gets confusing.
