| From: | To: |
The square meter to square feet conversion is used to convert area measurements from the metric system (square meters) to the imperial system (square feet). This conversion is essential in real estate, construction, and interior design where both measurement systems are commonly used.
The calculator uses the conversion formula:
Where:
Explanation: One square meter equals approximately 10.7639 square feet, making this conversion factor essential for accurate area calculations between the two measurement systems.
Details: Accurate area conversion is crucial for international real estate transactions, construction projects involving international standards, and any situation where metric and imperial measurements need to be compared or converted.
Tips: Enter the area in square meters. The value must be a positive number. The calculator will automatically convert it to square feet with precision up to four decimal places.
Q1: Why is the conversion factor 10.7639?
A: This factor comes from the relationship between meters and feet (1 meter = 3.28084 feet), so 1 square meter = (3.28084)^2 = 10.7639 square feet.
Q2: How accurate is this conversion?
A: The conversion is mathematically precise. The factor 10.7639 is derived from the exact relationship between meters and feet.
Q3: When would I need to convert square meters to square feet?
A: Common scenarios include international real estate listings, construction projects using imperial measurements, and interior design planning across different measurement systems.
Q4: Can I convert square feet back to square meters?
A: Yes, to convert square feet to square meters, divide the square feet value by 10.7639.
Q5: Are there any exceptions to this conversion?
A: The conversion is standard and applies to all area measurements. However, always verify if specific industries or regions use slightly different conversion factors for specialized applications.
