About Square Feet
A square foot (ft²) is an imperial unit of area equal to a square with sides of one foot (12 in × 12 in or 144 in²). It is the standard for measuring floor space in the United States and some other countries. A typical bedroom is 100-150 ft², and the average American house is roughly 2,000-2,500 ft². This unit dominates real estate listings, flooring sales, and construction in countries using imperial measurements.
About Ares
An are (a) is a metric unit of area equal to 100 square meters (10 m × 10 m). Though less commonly used today, it served as an intermediate unit between square meters and hectares in the metric system. One are equals 0.01 hectares or about 119.6 yd². It is still occasionally used in some European countries for measuring medium-sized land plots, gardens, and vineyards. The dekameter-squared (dam²) is another name for the same unit.
