How our Square Feet to Square Meters unit converter works

To ensure maximum accuracy when converting Square Feet to Square Meters, our calculator uses a scientific pivot method. Instead of relying on a potentially inaccurate direct conversion, the system first converts ft2 into the base unit of the International System (the square meter), then recalculates the result into m2. This approach drastically reduces rounding errors.
