This square meter converter shows an area in square meters next to square millimeters, square centimeters, ares, hectares, square kilometers, square inches, square feet, square yards, acres and square miles. Type into any box and the rest update as you type.
A square meter, or square metre, is the area of a square 1 meter on each side, and it is the SI unit of area. It is about 10.7639 square feet or 1.196 square yards. Floor areas, plot sizes and material quantities in most countries are given in square meters.
Results show up to six decimal places, so tiny areas in large units, such as square millimeters in square kilometers, can round to 0. You can type decimals or fractions.
What Is a Square Meter
A square meter is a 1 meter by 1 meter square, 10,000 square centimeters. A 4 by 3 meter room is 12 square meters, and a 10 by 10 meter plot is 100 square meters, or one are.

| Square Centimeters | 10,000 cm² | Exact |
| Ares | 0.01 a | Exact |
| Hectares | 0.0001 ha | Exact |
| Square Inches | 1,550.0031 in² | Rounded |
| Square Feet | 10.76391 ft² | Rounded |
| Square Yards | 1.19599 yd² | Rounded |
| Acres | 0.000247105 ac | Rounded |
Square Meters and Meters
A meter measures length and a square meter measures area, so they never convert directly. A linear meter of material, such as carpet or fabric sold off a roll, becomes square meters only when multiplied by the roll width: 5 linear meters of a 4 meter wide carpet is 20 square meters.
Going the other way, square meters become cubic meters when multiplied by a depth or height. A 20 square meter floor with a 0.1 meter slab is 2 cubic meters of concrete, which the CBM Cubic Meters Calculator works out for boxes and loads.
Price per Square Meter
Per square meter means for each square meter. A $5,000 price for 10 square meters is $500 per square meter, and the Price per Square Meter Calculator works it out for any total. To compare with a US price per square foot, divide the per-square-meter price by about 10.7639, which the Price per Square Foot Calculator can then use.
