Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 1000: 100 × 1000 ≈ 100,000 in2, against the exact 129,600 in2 (22.8% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A square yard is bigger than a square inch, so the number of square inches must come out larger than the number of square yards. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
