Area converter
The area converter translates one surface measurement into square meters, square feet, metric area units, imperial area units, and other reference units.
Enter any area value and choose its unit. The remaining fields update from the same base area so the conversion can be checked across several unit systems at once.
How to convert m² to ft²?
One square meter is about 10.7639 square feet. To convert from square meters to square feet, multiply the value by 10.7639.
To convert square feet back to square meters, multiply by 0.09290304 or divide by 10.7639. Area conversions use squared length factors, not simple length factors.
How many acres are in a hectare?
One hectare equals about 2.47105 acres. One acre equals about 0.404686 hectares.
These units are often used for land, farms, lots, and fields, so the converter keeps hectares and acres available together with square feet, square yards, and square meters.
FAQs
Square units describe surface area. A length conversion such as meters to feet must be squared before it can be used for area.
For practical estimates, keep enough decimal places when converting between very small and very large area units.
