Convert Square meters to Square feet
30 square meters is 322.92 sq ft. One square meter is exactly 10.7639104167 square feet.
30 square meters is 322.91731 square feet, because one square meter is 10.76391 square feet. To convert square meters to square feet, multiply by 10.76391; to go the other way, divide by 10.76391 or multiply by 0.09290304. The relation is exact but the figure is not: it is a rounding of a number that does not terminate, and it follows from NIST Office of Weights and Measures. A meter on a side, and about 10.764 square feet.

Factors are entered by hand from NIST Office of Weights and Measures rather than derived from a units library, so the ones that terminate are exact rather than rounded.
The same converter answers this pair however it is written: square metres to square feet is the British spelling of the same units — the metre and the litre are spelled that way outside the United States and the quantity does not change, and sqm to sqft is how the symbols are typed on a keyboard with no superscript on it.
How do you convert square meters to square feet? The converter and the working
- 1.Take the measurement in square meters.
- 2.Multiply by 10.76391 — that is how many square feet fit in one square meter.
- 3.To go back the other way, divide by 10.76391, or multiply by 0.09290304.

The factor is exact, because the foot is
A foot is exactly 0.3048 m, so a square foot is exactly 0.09290304 m² and a square meter is 10.76391041671 square feet. Nothing here is measured or rounded. Where a property listing disagrees with this, the difference is in what was counted as floor area — balconies, wall thickness, shared space — rather than in the conversion.
