Common mistakes to avoid
- Dividing when you should multiply. Because 1 square centimeter = 1 × 10⁻⁸ hectares, the answer should be smaller than the number you started with.
- Rounding too early. Convert first at full precision, then round the final answer to the precision the task actually needs.
How precise does the answer need to be?
Round only at the end, and only to the precision your task actually needs. The converter above keeps full double precision internally and rounds for display.
