Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

square meters

The area of a square pen is 576 square meters. If I build a regular hexagon pen with the same perimeter, how many meters should each of the six sides measure? How do I convert square meters to meters? Can't figure out the formula.

The perimeter of a square pen with an area of 576 square metres is 4 times 24 (the square root of 576), which equals 96.
