Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 1e-8: 40 × 1e-8 ≈ 4e-7 ha, against the exact 4e-7 ha (0.0% 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 centimeter is smaller than a hectare, so the number of hectares must come out smaller than the number of square centimeters. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
