- Lumens to LuxLux = lumens ÷ square meters, if every lumen landed evenly on that patch. An 800 lm bulb over 10 m² is 80 lx on paper. Walls, shades, and inverse-square eating the corners are not in the slider.

- Square Kilometers to Square MilesCity limits and national parks: divide km² by 2.58999. Los Angeles is about 1,300 km², not a “mile” number until you convert. One km² is 0.386 mi².
- Square Meters to Square FeetApartment listings in Europe print m². US flooring quotes print square feet. Multiply by 10.7639. A 50 m² studio is 538 ft² — not “500 unless the agent rounded in your favor.”
- Acres to Square FeetUS land: one acre is 43,560 ft², a chain-and-furlong leftover that refused to die. A quarter-acre lot is 10,890 ft². Multiply acres by 43,560. Soccer-field metaphors are not a survey.

A 5K is 5,000 meters, not 5 kilometers on the nose if your watch is sloppy. Divide meters by 1,000. Track races, building plans, and “how far was that hike” all live in this split.
Feet to Meters
Unit Converters
US height, ceiling height, and lumber still arrive in feet. Meter plans do not. One foot is exactly 0.3048 m — not “about a third.” Use this when a listing says 10 ft ceilings and the architect works in meters.
Inches to Centimeters
Unit Converters
Monitor diagonals, waist measurements, and photo prints still come in inches. Clothing charts in Europe come in cm. Multiply inches by 2.54. That factor is exact, not a kitchen guess.
