The converter at the top does this instantly and both ways; the sections below give the formula, worked examples, a full conversion chart and answers to the most common square centimetre-to-are questions.
How to convert Square Centimetre to Are
To convert square centimetre to are, multiply the number of square centimetre by the conversion factor 0.000001, because 1 cm² = 0.000001 are. The conversion is linear, so the same factor works for any value — whole numbers, decimals or fractions. For the reverse direction, 1 are = 1,000,000 cm², so you divide by 0.000001 (or multiply by 1,000,000) to turn are back into square centimetre.
are = cm² × 0.000001 ·
cm² = are × 1,000,000
- Write down the value you want to convert, in square centimetre.
- Multiply it by 0.000001.
- The result is the same area/length/quantity expressed in are.

Square Centimetre vs Are: which is bigger?
A are is the larger unit: one are equals 1,000,000 square centimetres. Put another way, you need 1,000,000 square centimetres to make a single are.
What is a Square Centimetre? History, origin and usage
The square centimetre is a metric unit of area, the square of the centimetre, which is one-hundredth of a metre. It is a convenient size for everyday small surfaces too small to express comfortably in square metres.
It is used for the areas of small objects such as paper, screens, fabric swatches, wounds in medicine, and material cross-sections in science and engineering. It bridges the gap between the very small square millimetre and the square metre.
One square centimetre is 100 square millimetres, and 10,000 square centimetres make one square metre. A standard postage stamp is only a few square centimetres in area.
What is a Are? History, origin and usage
The are is the original metric unit of land area, established by the French Revolutionary metric law of 1795 as 100 square metres. Its name comes from the Latin area, and it gave rise to the much more widely used hectare (100 ares).
Today the are itself is rarely used in everyday measurement, having been largely displaced by the square metre and the hectare. It survives mainly in a few European cadastral contexts and as the building block from which the hectare is defined.
One are is a square of 10 metres by 10 metres, and 100 ares make one hectare. It is one of the few metric units whose name survives chiefly inside a larger derived unit.

Tips for converting Square Centimetre to Are
- To go from square centimetre to are, multiply by 0.000001; to go back, divide by 0.000001 (or multiply by 1,000,000).
- For a quick mental estimate, remember that 1 square centimetre ≈ 0.000001 are, so 10 square centimetre ≈ 0.00001 are.
- The converter above keeps full precision; the tables round for readability, so use the tool for exact figures.
- Both fields update live as you type — change either side to convert in that direction.
How to use this Square Centimetre to Are converter
Type a number into the Square Centimetre field and the equivalent in Are appears instantly — there is no “convert” button to press and nothing is sent to a server, so it works offline once the page has loaded and is safe for any data. You can also type into the Are field to convert the other way (are to square centimetre). Use the swap control to flip the two units, and copy the result with a single click. Because the calculation runs in your browser with full floating-point precision, the converter is more exact than the rounded figures shown in the reference chart above — use the chart for quick look-ups and the tool for precise work.
Accuracy and method
Every figure on this page — the formula, the worked examples, the conversion chart and the “convert to other units” tables — is computed from a single verified conversion factor (1 cm² = 0.000001 are), never copied from a hand-typed lookup table that could drift. That factor is derived from each unit’s definition in terms of a common base unit, and an automated check re-verifies all of the site’s factors on every update, so the numbers here stay correct over time. This matters for square centimetre-to-are conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.
Sources
- BIPM — The International System of Units (SI Brochure) — the defining document for the SI, published by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures. It fixes the base unit that this conversion resolves to, which is why the factor here can be exact rather than approximate.
- NIST — Definitions of the SI base units — the US National Institute of Standards and Technology reference for the SI base units, used here as an independent cross-check on the base-unit definition.
