A square field measuring 100.00m by 100.00 m has an area of 1.00 hectare. One acre has an area of 43,600 square feet. If a field has an area of 12.0 acres, what is its equivalent in hectares?

Area (hectares) = 12.0 acres Γ 0.4047 hectares/acre
Area (hectares) = 4.8564 hectares
So, a field with an area of 12.0 acres is equivalent to 4.8564 hectares.
