To convert between Square Kilometer (km²) and Square Mile (mi²), use the following formulas:
1 Square Kilometer (km²) = 0.38610217499077215 Square Mile (mi²)
1 Square Mile (mi²) = 2.589988 Square Kilometer (km²)
1 km² = 1 * 0.38610217499077215 mi² = 0.38610217499077215 mi²
5 km² = 5 * 0.38610217499077215 mi² = 1.9305108749538609 mi²
10 km² = 10 * 0.38610217499077215 mi² = 3.8610217499077217 mi²
100 km² = 100 * 0.38610217499077215 mi² = 38.610217499077216 mi²
