How to convert cubic feet to cubic meters
You may already know how to convert square meters to square feet, but what about converting between two units of volume?
The first thing to know is that a cubic foot is defined as the volume of a cube whose sides are 1 foot long. And... you guessed it, a cubic meter can be represented by a cube whose sides measure 1 meter long.
Now that we've covered the basics, the real question is how to convert cubic feet to cubic meters and vice versa. To do this, we first need to know the conversion between feet and meters:
Foot-to-meter conversion
1 foot ≈ 0.3048 meter
Meter-to-foot conversion
1 meter ≈ 3.28084 foot
Then, to obtain the conversion between cubic feet and cubic meters, simply multiply the measurements by themselves three times:
Cubic feet to cubic meters conversion
1 cu ft ≈ (0.3048)3 m3 ≈ 0.028317 m3
Cubic meters to cubic feet conversion
1 m3 ≈ (3.28084)3 cu ft ≈ 35.315 cu ft
That's easy enough, isn't it?
