How do you convert the area of a square into square inches?

Answer 1

The area of the square is whatever it is. You don't change it or convert it, but you

can describe it in any unit of area you like to use.

The area of a square is the length of a side multiplied by itself (the "square" of the length).

If you measure the side of the square in inches, then the number you get for the

area is in square inches. If you measure it in feet, then you get the area in square

feet. If you measure it in miles, then the area you get is in square miles.

Here's how to convert a few different units of area into square inches. Multiply

each one by the number next to it to get the same area in square inches:

Square millimeters . . . . . . . . 0.00155

Square centimeters. . . . . . . . 0.155

Square meters . . . . . . . . 1,550

Square feet . . . . . . . . . . . . 144

Square yards. . . . . . . . . . 1,296

Square miles . . 40,144,489,600
