Calculate square metres from length and width in metric or imperial units

A square metres calculator determines the area of a rectangular space from length and width measurements. It accepts input in metres, centimetres, feet, or inches and converts the result to square feet, square yards, and acres for cross-system comparison.

How square metres are calculated

Multiply the length and width in metres to get the area in square metres. If the dimensions are in centimetres, divide each by 100 first. If in feet, multiply each by 0.3048 to convert to metres.

One square metre equals approximately 10.764 square feet or 1.196 square yards. These conversions are useful for comparing floor plans, land areas, and material coverage across different unit systems.

Square metres = Length (m) x Width (m)

Multiply length and width in metres to get the area in square metres.

Practical uses

Square metres are the standard area unit for property listings, flooring coverage, and material ordering in metric countries. Knowing the square metre area lets you compare with square-foot-based specifications and order the right amount of flooring, paint, or tile.
