Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.01: 50 × 0.01 ≈ 0.5 km2, against the exact 0.5 km2 (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 hectare is smaller than a square kilometer, so the number of square kilometers must come out smaller than the number of hectares. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
