Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on
convert-me.com FaceBook pageThank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

How would I go about converting something priced in Hong Kong Dollars per square meter to US Dollars per square foot. Let's assume a 7.1 exchange rate for HKD to USD. So, I have a price of 1590hkd/psm, and I want to end up with x usd/psf.
I will be building a computer routine to do this, so a step by step approach woudl be great. Thanks so much for the help!

The foot is legally defined as 0.3048 m
1590 HKD/m² x $1 US/7.1 HKD x (0.3048 m/ 1 ft)² = $20.81/ft²
