Square Inches to Square Meters Converter

This converter automatically converts between square inches (in²) and square meters (m²) both ways. You can also set the number of decimal places for the result.

How to Use the Calculator

To use the calculator, input the value in square inches (in²) in the corresponding field, and the equivalent value in square meters (m²) will automatically appear. You can also enter the value in square meters, and it will convert to square inches. Additionally, you can adjust the number of decimal places displayed, with the option to set it between 0 and 10 decimal places.

Formula

The conversion formula from square inches to square meters is as follows:

Square Meters (m²) = Square Inches (in²) × 0.00064516

To reverse the calculation, divide square meters by 0.00064516 to get the value in square inches.

History and Interesting Facts

The square inch (in²) is a unit of area measurement used primarily in countries that follow the imperial system, like the United States. It is commonly used to measure smaller surfaces, such as photos, documents, and other personal items. In contrast, the square meter (m²) is the standard unit of area in the metric system, widely used around the world, particularly in real estate, construction, and large-scale design projects. Converting between these units allows for better communication and comparison in industries where both measurement systems are used.
