About This Calculator

Convert area measurements between metric and imperial units. All factors are exact, derived from the 1959 international length definitions (1 in = 25.4 mm exactly).

How It Works

Each area unit's factor is the square of its length factor. For example, 1 ft² = 0.3048² = 0.09290304 m² exactly.

The Formula

result = value × factor(from) ÷ factor(to), where each factor is the unit's exact area in square metres (e.g. 1 acre = 43560 ft² = 4046.8564224 m²).
