§ 02 / ABOUT

How it works.

Pick a value, pick the unit you have, pick the unit you want. Every supported area unit is stored as a multiplier of square meters; converting from A to B is (value × A.factor) ÷ B.factor.

// THE KEY CONVERSIONS

  • 1 sq ft = 0.0929 sq m
  • 1 sq m = 10.764 sq ft
  • 1 acre = 4,046.86 sq m = 43,560 sq ft = 0.4047 hectares
  • 1 hectare = 10,000 sq m = 2.471 acres
  • 1 sq mile = 640 acres = 2.59 sq km

// USE IT FOR

  • Real estate — comparing US listings (sq ft) with international (sq m).
  • Land + farming — acres ↔ hectares, plot planning.
  • Construction — flooring, roofing, painting estimates.
  • Geography — comparing country areas in sq mi vs sq km.
§ 03 / FAQ

Common questions.

How big is an acre?+
Exactly 4,046.8564224 square meters, or about 0.4047 hectares. In feet: 43,560 sq ft — historically defined as the area a yoke of oxen could plow in a day. About 0.9 American football fields including the end zones.
Acres vs hectares — quick conversion?+
1 hectare = 2.471 acres. 1 acre = 0.4047 hectares. Hectares are the metric standard for land area; acres are still used in real estate in the US, UK, and Commonwealth countries.
How many square feet in a square meter?+
About 10.764 sq ft per sq m. The reverse: 1 sq ft = 0.0929 sq m. Useful when reading apartment listings between metric and imperial markets.
Is a square mile the same as 640 acres?+
Yes — exactly. The US Public Land Survey System divided the country into 1-square-mile sections of 640 acres each, which is why farms are still often described in 40, 80, 160, 320, or 640 acre parcels.
