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).
