Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 9: 5,000 × 9 ≈ 45,000 ft2, against the exact 45,000 ft2 (0.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A square yard is bigger than a square foot, so the number of square feet must come out larger than the number of square yards. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
