Convert square foot to square mile

Learn how to convert 1 square foot to square mile step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (s q u a r e f o o t) = x (s q u a r e m i l e)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(s q u a r e m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (s q u a r e f o o t) = 0.09290304 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 0.09290304 (m^{2})

Right side: 1.0 (s q u a r e m i l e) = 2589998.47031952 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 2589998.47031952 (m^{2})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (s q u a r e f o o t) = x (s q u a r e m i l e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.09290304 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r) = x \times 2589998.47031952 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.09290304 \cdot (m^{2}) = x \cdot 2589998.47031952 \cdot (m^{2})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.09290304 \cdot (m^{2}) = x \times 2589998.47031952 \times (m^{2})

Conversion Equation

0.09290304 = x \times 2589998.47031952

Switch sides

x \times 2589998.47031952 = 0.09290304

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2589998.47031952})

x \times 2589998.47031952 \times \frac{1.0}{2589998.47031952} = 0.09290304 \times \frac{1.0}{2589998.47031952}

Cancel

x \times 2589998.47031952 \times \frac{1.0}{2589998.47031952} = 0.09290304 \times \frac{1.0}{2589998.47031952}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.09290304}{2589998.47031952}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000000359 \approx 3.587 \times 10^{- 8}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (s q u a r e f o o t) \approx 3.587 \times 10^{- 8} (s q u a r e m i l e)
