Work out area converter instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Every area unit is defined as a multiple of the square metre, so this converter works in two steps: multiply the input by the source unit's factor to reach square metre, then divide by the target unit's factor. That is why any pair in the list converts correctly without needing a separate formula for each combination.
Two-step conversion
result = value × factor(from) ÷ factor(to)
Base unit
base (square metre) = value × factor(from)
With 14 units there would be 182 direct pairs to maintain. Routing through square metre needs only one factor per unit and gives identical results.
Yes — the first is the unit your number is already in, the second is the unit you want. Swapping them inverts the result.
