About Area Conversion
The area conversion feature is a useful tool that helps us convert between different area units. Area refers to the amount of flat space occupied by an object or a region, and common units include square meters, square centimeters, square feet, and square inches, among others. With the area conversion feature, we can easily and accurately convert between these units.
Here are some examples to illustrate the applications of the area conversion feature:
House Area: Let's say you're looking for a new house, and the real estate agent provides the house area in square feet, but you prefer to measure area in square meters. By using the area conversion feature, you can convert the house area from square feet to square meters to better understand the actual size of the house.
Lawn Installation: You're planning to install a lawn in your backyard, and the turf supplier calculates and sells the turf in square meters. However, your concept of area is closer to square feet. By using the area conversion feature, you can convert the square meters provided by the supplier to square feet to better understand the amount of turf you need to purchase.
Flooring Installation: You want to replace the flooring in your bedroom, and the flooring retailer provides the coverage area in square feet. However, you're more familiar with the concept of square meters. By using the area conversion feature, you can convert the square feet provided by the retailer to square meters to better understand the quantity of flooring material you need to purchase.
Construction: The area conversion feature is also very useful in construction. For example, if you need to paint a wall and the paint coverage area is given in square meters, you can use the area conversion feature to convert square meters to square feet to better plan the amount of paint required.

Hectare (ha): The hectare is a metric unit of area equal to 10,000 square meters. It is commonly used to measure land areas, such as agricultural fields or parks. One hectare is approximately equal to 2.47 acres.
