Can someone tell me please how to convert square metres to feet and inches ? I need to know room measurements from European houses, i.e. what would a room measuring, say, 12' x 24' be in square metres. This is just an example for me to 'start' on.
Thank you.

Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

If the room is rectangular, area is just the product of length and width.
Your example starts with feet, the area of a 12' x 24' room is 288 sq feet.
You can either convert both dimensions from feet to meters, then multiply for area, or you can convert sq feet directly to sq meters.
Appraoach 1
1' = 0.3048 m exactly, so the room is about 3.66 m x 7.32 m, or 26.76 m^2.
Approach 2
Since 1' = 0.3048 m, 1 sq ft = 0.0929 m^ and the 288 sq ft room is 26.76 m^2
