> Convert square metres (m²) to square feet (ft²): 1 square metre = 10.76391 ft², so multiply by 10.76391 or divide by 0.09290304. Both fields are editable, so you can also type in square feet and get square metres back.

## Inputs

- Square metres (m²)

## Results

- Square feet

## Formula

```
1 m² = 10.76391 ft²
1 ft² = 0.09290304 m²
ft² = m² × 10.76391
```

## Explanation

Multiply square metres by 10.7639 to get square feet. Apartment listings, office leases and flooring estimates often need both.

### How to use the Square Meters to Square Feet Converter

- Type the number of square metres into the **Square metres** field. Decimals such as 0.5 are fine.
- Read the answer in **Square feet** – it updates as you type, with no button to press.
- To convert the other way, type into **Square feet** and the square metres are recalculated.
- Press **Copy results** to copy both values with the page title, or **Copy link** to share this exact conversion.

This page converts only m² ⇄ ft². Need a different unit? Use the general area converter, where you can choose any “from” and “to” unit.

### How it works

Both units measure area, so they are always in the same ratio: one square metre equals 10.76391 square feet. The calculator multiplies the number of square metres you type by 10.76391 to give square feet, and when you type into the square feet field it divides by the same factor to give square metres. Because the ratio never changes, doubling the square metres always doubles the square feet. Results are calculated at full precision and rounded only for display (up to eight decimal places, with very large or small values shown in scientific notation).

### How to convert square metres to square feet

- Write down the value in square metres, for example **1 m²**.
- Multiply by the conversion factor 10.76391 (because 1 square metre = 10.76391 ft²).
- 1 × 10.76391 = **10.76391 ft²**.
- To go back from square feet to square metres, divide by 10.76391 – or multiply by 0.09290304.

### What is a square metre?

The square metre is the SI unit of area: a square 1 m on each side. Floor plans, apartment listings and paint coverage are given in m² in most of the world.

### What is a square foot?

The square foot is a square 1 ft on each side, exactly 0.09290304 m². U.S., Canadian, UK and South Asian property listings quote floor space in square feet.

### Quick mental conversion

For a fast estimate, multiply square metres by about **11** to get square feet; the error is about 2.2%. Use the calculator above when you need the exact figure.

### Common mistakes to avoid

Converting area with a length factor (1 m = 3.28 ft, but 1 m² = 10.76 ft², not 3.28 ft²), and assuming regional land units such as marla, bigha or katha have one standard size everywhere.

## Worked example

Inputs — Square metres: 1 m².

Results — **Square feet = 10.76391042 ft²**.
