Square Meters to Square Yards

The conversion of one unit of measurement to another is widely used in mathematics. Generally, while solving some problems, we need to convert units. For example, you are asked to find the area of a room in square feet, and its side length is given in meters. So, after calculating the area of a room, we have to convert the obtained area in square meters to square feet. Before converting one unit to the other, we need to understand the relationship between the units. A square meter and a square yard are the units used for the measurement of area. In this article, we will discuss the conversion of square meters to square yards.

Square Meter (m²)

A square meter is a metric unit of measurement of area, which is represented as m². It is the area of a square with measurements of one meter long and one meter wide. One square meter can be written symbolically as 1 sq. m or 1 m². One square meter equals 0.0001 hectares, 0.000247105381 acres, 0.0247105381 cents, 10^-6 square kilometers, 1.195990 square yards, 10.763911 square feet, and 1550.0031 square inches. 

1 Square meter = 1 m × 1 m

1 Square meter = 1.19599005 square yards

Square Yards (yd²)

A square yard is an Imperial or U.S. customary unit of measurement of area, which is represented as yd². It is the area of a square with measurements of one yard long and one yard wide. One square yard can be written symbolically as 1 sq. yd or 1 yd². One square yard equals 3.2283 × 10^-7 square miles, 0.000083612736 hectares, 0.00020661157 acres, 0.83612736 square meters, 9 square feet, and 1,296 square inches. 

1 Square yard = 1 yd × 1 yd

1 Square yard = 0.83612736 square meters

How to Convert Square Meters to Square Yards?

The value of one square meter is equal to 1.19599005 square yards. So, to convert square meters to square yards, we need to multiply the given square meter value by 1.19599005, i.e.,

1 square meter = 1.19599005 square yards

n × 1 square meter = n × 1.19599005 square yards

Example: Convert 12.15 square meters into square yards.

Solution:

Multiply 12.15 by a factor of 1.19599005 to change 12.15 square meters into square yards i.e.,

12.15 square meters = 12.15 × 1.19599005 square yards.
12.15 square meters = 14.5312791075 square yards 
                                 ≈ 14.531 square yards

Thus, the value of 12.15 square meters is approximately equal to 14.531 square yards.

Solved Examples on Square Meters to Square Yards

Example 1: Convert 58 square meters into square yards.

Solution:

We know that,

1 Square meter = 1.19599005 square yards

Therefore,

58 square meters = 58 × 1.19599005 square yards

58 m² = 69.3674229 yd² ≈ 69.367 yd²

Therefore, the value of 58 square meters is approximately equal to 69.367 square yards.

Example 2: Convert 32.14 square meters into square yards.

Solution:

We know that,

1 Square meter = 1.19599005 square yards

Therefore,

32.14 square meters = 32.14 × 1.19599005 square yards

32.14 m² = 38.439120207 yd² ≈ 38.439 yd²

Therefore, the value of 32.14 square meters is approximately equal to 38.439 square yards.

Example 3: Convert 19 square yards into square meters.

Solution:

We know that,

1 square yard = 0.83612736 square meters

Therefore,

19 square yards = 19 × 0.83612736 square meters

19 yd² = 15.88641984 m²

19 yd² ≈ 15.886 m²

Therefore, the value of 19 square yards is approximately equal to 15.886 square meters.

Example 4: Convert 70.6 square yards into square meters.

Solution:

We know that,

1 square yard = 0.83612736 square meters

Therefore,

70.6 square yards = 70.6 × 0.83612736 square meters

70.6 yd² = 59.0295591616 m²

70.6 yd² ≈ 59.03 m²

Therefore, the value of 70.6 square yards is approximately equal to 56.03 square meters.

Example 5: Convert 14 square meters into square yards.

Solution:

We know that,

1 Square meter ≈ 1.19599005 square yards

Therefore,

14 square meters ≈ 14 × 1.19599005 square yards

14 m² ≈ 16.7438607 yd² ≈ 16.744 yd²

Therefore, the value of 14 square meters is approximately equal to 16.744 square yards.
