How the Unit Converter works

One square meter is exactly 10.76391042 square feet. That is a definition rather than a measurement: the imperial and US customary units were fixed against metric ones by the 1959 international yard and pound agreement, so this factor does not drift and will not be revised.

Worked through: 75 m2 x 10.7639104 = 807.293 sq ft.

Going the other way, one square foot is 0.09290304 square meters.

To convert without a calculator, multiply by 10.76. Rounding that to 11 is within 2.2% for most purposes.

Property listings, mostly. One square meter is 10.76 square feet, so a 100 square meter apartment is 1,076 square feet. Note the factor is the SQUARE of the length conversion: using 3.28 instead of 10.76 understates the area by a factor of three.

Precision is worth matching to the input. A measurement given as 10 m2 carries one or two significant figures, and reporting its conversion to six implies a precision the original never had.
