About area conversions

Area conversions are essential in real estate, agriculture, construction, and everyday life. The most common conversions are between square meters (used in most countries) and square feet (used primarily in the United States), and between acres and hectares for land measurement.

One square meter equals approximately 10.764 square feet. One acre equals 4,047 square meters or 0.4047 hectares. One hectare equals 10,000 square meters or approximately 2.471 acres.

In the UAE and Middle East, square feet and square meters are both widely used in real estate. For the international definition, see the NIST reference on SI units.
