How this cubic foot to cubic metre calculator works
Enter a volume in cubic feet. The calculator multiplies that number by 0.028316846592 and shows the result in cubic metres. m³ = ft³ × 0.028316846592.
An international foot is exactly 0.3048 metres. Volume uses three dimensions, so the conversion cubes that length: 0.3048 × 0.3048 × 0.3048 = 0.028316846592. The multiplier card rounds the same factor to ten decimal places, 0.0283168466. The result itself is rounded to at most six decimal places.
Worked example: the field’s sample volume is 100 ft³. 100 × 0.028316846592 = 2.8316846592, which the page shows as 2.831685 m³. One cubic foot alone is 0.028317 m³ after that rounding. About 35.314667 ft³ makes 1 m³ on this page.
This is a volume conversion. Multiplying a length in feet by 0.3048 gives metres. Multiplying a volume in cubic feet by 0.028316846592 gives cubic metres. Zero is allowed and returns 0 m³. A negative volume is rejected. The circle fills as the input approaches 50 ft³, which is 1.415842 m³, and stays full above that while the cubic-metre figure keeps growing.
Cubic foot to cubic metre examples
Each cubic-metre value is the cubic-foot volume multiplied by 0.028316846592, rounded the same way as the calculator.
| Cubic feet | Cubic metres | What it marks |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0.028317 | One cubic foot |
| 10 | 0.283168 | Ten cubic feet |
| 35.314667 | 1 | About 1 cubic metre |
| 50 | 1.415842 | Ring is full |
| 100 | 2.831685 | Sample input |
| 1,000 | 28.316847 | One thousand cubic feet |
How to read the result
Multiply by 0.028316846592
1 ft³ becomes 0.028317 m³ after the result is rounded to six decimal places.
Volume, not length
Cube the foot-to-metre factor. 0.3048³ is the multiplier used here.
About 35.31 ft³ per m³
35.314667 cubic feet round to 1 cubic metre on this page.
The circle
The ring is full at 50 ft³. 100 ft³ still converts to 2.831685 m³.
Frequently asked questions
How do you convert cubic feet to cubic metres?
Multiply the volume in cubic feet by 0.028316846592. m³ = ft³ × 0.028316846592. The page shows that result to at most six decimal places. 100 ft³ is 2.831685 m³.
Where does the factor 0.028316846592 come from?
One international foot is exactly 0.3048 metres. A cubic foot is a cube one foot on each side, so the volume factor is 0.3048 × 0.3048 × 0.3048 = 0.028316846592. The multiplier card rounds that factor to ten decimal places as 0.0283168466.
What is 1 cubic foot in cubic metres?
1 × 0.028316846592 = 0.028316846592, which this page rounds to 0.028317 m³. One cubic foot is a little under 3 hundredths of a cubic metre.
How many cubic feet are in 1 cubic metre?
Divide 1 by 0.028316846592. That is about 35.314667 ft³. Entering 35.314667 on this page rounds back to 1 m³.
Is this the same as converting feet to metres?
The length conversion uses 0.3048. This page converts volume, so it uses 0.3048 cubed. A room 10 ft by 10 ft by 1 ft holds 100 ft³, which is 2.831685 m³, not 100 × 0.3048.
How many decimal places are shown?
The cubic-metre figure is rounded to six decimal places, and trailing zeros are dropped. 10 ft³ appears as 0.283168 m³, and 1,000 ft³ appears as 28.316847 m³.
Can I convert zero or a negative volume?
Zero is allowed and returns 0 m³. A negative number is rejected. The field must be 0 or greater.
Why does the circle fill at 50 cubic feet?
The ring is a visual scale that is full when the input reaches 50 ft³. That volume is 1.415842 m³. Larger volumes still convert. 100 ft³ is 2.831685 m³.
How do I turn cubic metres back into cubic feet?
Divide the cubic metres by 0.028316846592, or multiply by about 35.314667. A result of 2.831685 m³ is 100 ft³ before the six-decimal rounding.
Does the result include litres?
The page shows cubic metres only. One cubic metre is 1,000 litres, so 0.028317 m³ from 1 ft³ is about 28.317 litres. That litre figure is not printed on the calculator.
