How to convert square meters to square feet
ft² = m² × 10.7639104167
To convert square meters to square feet, multiply the number of square meters by 10.7639104167.
Example: 42 m² to ft²
- Start with the value in square meters: 42 m².
- Multiply by 10.7639104167: 42 × 10.7639104167 = 452.0842375.
- Result: 42 square meters = 452.0842375 square feet.
Going the other way, 1 square foot = 0.09290304 square meters, so to convert square feet back to square meters you divide by the same number. See square feet to square meters.
Where the conversion factor comes from
A foot is exactly 0.3048 m, so a square foot is 0.3048 × 0.3048 = 0.09290304 m² exactly. One square meter is therefore 10.7639 square feet. Area factors are the square of length factors, which is why 1 m is 3.28 ft but 1 m² is 10.76 ft².
Mental math: m² to ft² in your head
Multiply by 10 and add 7.6%: 50 m² → 500 + 38 = 538 sq ft (exact 538.2). Or multiply by 11 for a quick upper estimate.
