Converting Square Meters to Square Feet:
To convert Square Meters to Square Feet using the CONVERT function, follow these steps:

Step 1: Set Up Your Excel Sheet
Open Excel and create a new spreadsheet or navigate to the existing one where you want to perform the conversions.
Step 2: Enter Your Measurement Data
Label a column as "Square Meters" and input the values you wish to convert from Square Meters to Square Feet.
Step 3: Utilize the CONVERT Function
In an adjacent column, label it as "Square Feet." In the first cell of the "Square Feet" column (let's say it's B2), input the following formula:
=CONVERT(A2, "m2", "ft2")
This formula takes the value in cell A2 (which contains the measurement in square meters) and converts it to square feet.
Step 4: Autofill the Formula
Use Excel's autofill feature to apply the formula to the entire column of meter measurements. Click and drag the small square in the bottom-right corner of cell B2 down to autofill the formula for all other cells in the "square feet" column.
