Convert column inch to square meter

Learn how to convert 1 column inch to square meter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c o l u m n i n c h) = x (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(s q u a r e m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (c o l u m n i n c h) = 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} (m^{2})

Right side: 1.0 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 1.0 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 1.0 (m^{2})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c o l u m n i n c h) = x (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} \times (s q u a r e m e t e r) = x \times 1.0 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \cdot 1.0 \cdot (m^{2})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \times 1.0 \times (m^{2})

Conversion Equation

1.331 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 1.0

Simplify

1.331 \times 10^{- 3} = x

Switch sides

x = 1.331 \times 10^{- 3}

Solve

x

x = 0.001331 = 1.331 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c o l u m n i n c h) = 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} (s q u a r e m e t e r)
