How to convert square meters to square feet
Multiply m² area by 10.7639
Explanation:
1 foot is exactly 0.3048 meters. Squaring both values, 1 foot squared is exactly 0.09290304 meters squared.
1 ft = 0.3048 m
(1 ft)² = (0.3048 m)²
1 ft² = 0.09290304 m²
dividing both sides by the meters squared,
1 ft² / 0.09290304 m² = 1 and,
1 ft² / 0.09290304 m² ≈ 10.7639 ft²/m²
Therefore, to convert m² to ft² we multiply by 10.7639 ft²/m². Meters squared (m²) will cancel and we are left with units of feet squared (ft²).
ft² = m² × 10.7639
Example: Convert 150 square meters to square feet.
150 m² to ft² is calculated here using the multiplication factor 10.7639
150 m² × 10.7639 ft²/m²
Multiply through and cancel m² units
150 m² × 10.7639
ft²/m² = 1,614.585 ft²
150 m² = 1,614.585 ft²
