The missing dimension is required. For flooring, fabric, panels or a wall, use the actual width or height of the strip.
Meters to Square Meters Calculator
Quick answer
Square meters = length in meters x width in meters. Enter the missing width to convert a linear measurement into area.
Formula
m2 = m x width
Examples
| Length, m | Width, m | Area |
|---|---|---|
| 5 m | 2 m | 10 m2 |
| 12 m | 0.6 m | 7.2 m2 |
| 25 m | 1.2 m | 30 m2 |

Common mistake
Do not treat 1 m as 1 m2 unless the second dimension is exactly 1 m.
