How the units relate

One square metre is 10.764 square feet; an acre is 4,047 square metres; and a hectare is exactly 10,000 square metres, or about 2.47 acres. A square kilometre is 100 hectares. Everything converts through the square metre.

1 hectare in acres
10,000 ÷ 4,046.86 = 2.47 acres

Picking the right one

Rooms and small plots read naturally in square metres or square feet; farmland uses acres or hectares; regions and maps use square kilometres or square miles. The conversions are exact ratios, so a survey figure stays accurate across units.
