How to Convert Square Meters to Square Millimeters
To convert from square meters (m²) to square millimeters (mm²), you multiply the area in square meters by 1,000,000. For more information about square meters as a unit of measurement, visit our square meters page.
Formula
Square Millimeters = Square Meters × 1,000,000
or
mm² = m² × 1,000,000
Step-by-step process
- Take the area in square meters.
- Multiply it by 1,000,000.
- The result is the equivalent area in square millimeters.
Examples
- 0.001 m² = 0.001 × 1,000,000 = 1,000 mm²
- 0.01 m² = 0.01 × 1,000,000 = 10,000 mm²
- 0.1 m² = 0.1 × 1,000,000 = 100,000 mm²
- 1 m² = 1 × 1,000,000 = 1,000,000 mm²
