How to Convert Centimeters Square to Feet Square
Example: How many feet square are equivalent to 85.5 centimeters square?
As;
1 centimeters square = 0.001076 feet square
85.5 centimeters square = Y feet square
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 85.5 times 0.001076 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 85.5 * 0.001076 / 1 = 0.091998 feet square
Answer is: 0.091998 feet square are equivalent to 85.5 centimeters square.
