A foot is 0,30m and a sq ft is 0,09m. I know some will say because 0,3 times 0,3 is 0,09 but that wouldn’t explain the break of logic as I perceive it.
You have a square meter. You divide it into thirds, with each third approximately 1 foot long. Those thirds aren’t squares — they’re still a meter wide.
To make them squares, you divide them into thirds in the other direction. Now you have squares. But there’s nine of them.
