Area Converters: Square Metres, Feet, Acres and Hectares

Area conversions come up when buying flooring, comparing property sizes or reading land listings. Floor plans in the UK may give square feet, while builders and suppliers work in square metres, and land is sold by the acre or the hectare.

Each converter handles one pair of units and remembers that area factors are the length factor squared, so a metre being 3.28 feet means a square metre is about 10.76 square feet.
