How does this calculator work?
One square metre equals 10.7639 ft², 10,000 cm², 0.0001 ha, 0.000247 acres, 1,550 in², 1.196 yd², 10⁻⁶ km², and 3.86×10⁻⁷ mi². Enter any m² value and get all eight common area units instantly, using exact conversion factors from the international inch and metre definitions.
Formula
How this is calculated
The foundation of all conversions here is the exact international-foot definition: 1 foot = 0.3048 metres, which makes 1 ft² = 0.3048² = 0.09290304 m². Dividing 1 by that factor gives 1 m² = 10.763910416… ft² (non-terminating, but exact in the mathematical sense). All other imperial units follow: 1 yd² = 9 ft², 1 in² = ft²/144.
Metric sub- and super-units are exact powers of 10: 1 m² = 10,000 cm² (exact), 1 km² = 1,000,000 m² (exact). Hectares are defined as 10,000 m², making 1 m² = 0.0001 ha exactly. Acres follow from the imperial definition 1 acre = 43,560 ft² = 4,046.8564224 m².
For square miles, 1 mile = 1,609.344 m (exact), so 1 mi² = 1,609.344² = 2,589,988.110336 m² (exact). All these factors are applied directly without intermediate rounding, so the only imprecision is 64-bit floating-point arithmetic (~15 significant figures), which is negligible for any practical measurement.
Frequently asked questions
Approximately 10.7639 square feet. More precisely, 1 m² = 1 / 0.09290304 ft², because 1 ft = 0.3048 m is the exact international definition and 0.3048² = 0.09290304.
Divide by 10,000. One hectare is defined as exactly 10,000 m², so 250 m² = 0.025 ha.
Multiply by 0.000247105 (or divide by 4,046.8564224). For example, 1,000 m² × 0.000247105 ≈ 0.247 acres.
