Re: how big of 1 rai in meter square?
In NZ we use the metric system.
1 hectare = 10,000 sqm
1 rai = 1600 sqm
therefore 1 ha = 6.25 rai
1 ha = 2.471 acres
2.471 acres into 6.25 rai = 2.529
Therefore 1 acre = 2.529 raiน้ำผึ้ง

Re: how big of 1 rai in meter square?
Lenss I think you mean a Ngan but here is my 2 bobs worth:
From a reliable source
1 sq. wah = 4 sq. m. 1 acre = 2.471 rai or 43,560 sq. ft.
1 ngan = 100 wah (or 400 sq. m.) 1 hectare = 6.25 rai or 10,000 sq. m.
1 Rai = 4 Ngan (or 1600 sq. m.)

Re: how big of 1 rai in meter square?
What you called 'Da Long Wa' is ตารางวา (= sq. Wa, measurement of area.), while a Wa (วา) is measurement of a lenght.
1 Wa = 2 M.
1 sq. Wa = 4 sq M.
Rai is another measurement of area,
1 Rai = 400 sq. Wa = 1600 sq. M.
(so to answer your question, 1 Rai = 400 sqW)

But IMO, in England, I usually hear 'my sixpence worth' instead. so I think '2 bobs worth' is Australian thing?TK
