Here we will explain and show you how to convert 1.6 square inches to square feet. Before we continue, note that 1.6 square inches to square feet is the same as 1.6 sqin to sqft, 1.6 in2 to ft2, and 1.6 in² to ft².
To create a formula to calculate 1.6 square inches to square feet, we start with the fact that one inch equals one twelfth of a foot. Therefore, this formula is true:
Inches × (1/12) = Feet
However, we are dealing with square inches and square feet, which means inches and feet to the 2nd power. Thus, we take both sides of the formula above to the 2nd power to get this result:
Inches² × (1/12)² = Feet²
Inches² × (1/144) = Feet²
in² × (1/144) = ft²

When we enter 1.6 square inches into our formula, we get the answer to 1.6 square inches converted to square feet:
in² × (1/144) = ft²
1.6 × (1/144)
1.6 in² = 1/90 ft²
