How to Convert Meters Square to Feet Square
Example: How many feet square are equivalent to 18.5 meters square?
As;
1 meters square = 10.76391 feet square
18.5 meters square = Y feet square
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 18.5 times 10.76391 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 18.5 * 10.76391 / 1 = 199.132335 feet square
Answer is: 199.132335 feet square are equivalent to 18.5 meters square.
