Conversion Formula:
| From: | To: |
Square meters to square feet conversion is a common area measurement conversion used in real estate, construction, and interior design. It allows for easy comparison between metric and imperial area measurements.
The calculator uses the conversion formula:
Where:
Explanation: The conversion factor is derived from the relationship between meters and feet (1 meter = 3.28084 feet), squared to account for area.
Details: Accurate area conversion is essential for international real estate transactions, construction projects involving both metric and imperial measurements, and understanding property sizes across different measurement systems.
Tips: Enter the area in square meters. The value must be a positive number. The calculator will automatically convert to square feet with precision to four decimal places.
Q1: Why is the conversion factor 10.7639?
A: Because 1 meter equals 3.28084 feet, so 1 square meter equals (3.28084)^2 = 10.7639 square feet.
Q2: How accurate is this conversion?
A: The conversion is mathematically precise. The calculator provides results with four decimal places for accuracy.
Q3: When would I need to convert square meters to square feet?
A: Common scenarios include international real estate comparisons, construction projects using imperial measurements, and understanding property sizes in countries that use different measurement systems.
Q4: Are there any limitations to this conversion?
A: The conversion is purely mathematical and accurate. However, actual property measurements may have slight variations due to rounding or measurement techniques.
Q5: Can I convert square feet back to square meters?
A: Yes, to convert square feet to square meters, divide the square footage by 10.7639 (or multiply by 0.092903).
