Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 4000: 500 × 4000 ≈ 2,000,000 m2, against the exact 2,023,428.21 m2 (1.2% 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 acre is bigger than a square meter, so the number of square meters must come out larger than the number of acres. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
