Was es bedeutet

A 12×14 room is 168 square feet. Square footage is length × width, so 12 ft × 14 ft = 168 sq ft. In metric that's about 15.61 square meters, and it's 18.67 square yards. The calculator above is pre-filled with 12 × 14 — change the numbers for any other size.

Formel & Anleitung

So wird gerechnet

Square footage is an area, found by multiplying the two side lengths in feet. For a rectangular room, that's simply length times width.

1Measure the two sides in feet — here they are 12 ft and 14 ft.
2Multiply them: 12 × 14 = 168 square feet.
3To get square meters, multiply by 0.0929 → about 15.61 sq m.
4To get square yards, divide by 9 → 18.67 sq yd.
