To convert square meters to square kilometers, multiply the value by 1 × 10⁻⁶. To go the other way, multiply square kilometers by 1,000,000 to get square meters.
| Square Meters (m²) | Square Kilometers (km²) |
|---|---|
| 1 m² | 1 × 10⁻⁶ km² |
| 2 m² | 2 × 10⁻⁶ km² |
| 5 m² | 5 × 10⁻⁶ km² |
| 10 m² | 1 × 10⁻⁵ km² |
| 20 m² | 2 × 10⁻⁵ km² |
| 50 m² | 5 × 10⁻⁵ km² |
| 100 m² | 0.0001 km² |
| 500 m² | 0.0005 km² |
| 1,000 m² | 0.001 km² |
Square meter (m²). The square meter is the SI unit of area, the area of a square with 1 m sides.
Square kilometer (km²). A square kilometer is one million square meters (100 hectares), used for countries, cities and lakes.
There are 1 × 10⁻⁶ square kilometers in one square meter.
Multiply the number of square meters by 1 × 10⁻⁶. For example, 10 square meters equal 1 × 10⁻⁵ square kilometers.
One square kilometer equals 1,000,000 square meters.
