lumen/square meter to lux
Please provide values below to convert lumen/square meter [lm/m^2] to lux [lx], or change ↔.
lumen/square meter [lm/m^2]
Definition: A unit of illuminance, representing the amount of luminous flux (in lumens) spread over an area of one square meter.
Historyandorigin: Lumen per square meter is used in photometry to describe how much light falls on a surface.
CurrentUse: It is equivalent to the unit lux and is used worldwide for measuring light intensity in various settings like homes, offices, and street lighting.
funfact: Lumen per square meter (lux) is a standard way to measure lighting levels in buildings and public spaces.
lux [lx]
Definition: A unit of illuminance, measuring the amount of light that falls on a surface area, equal to one lumen per square meter.
Historyandorigin: The lux is part of the International System of Units (SI) and was introduced in the late 19th century as part of the metric system's development.
CurrentUse: It is widely used in lighting design and to measure the intensity of light across a surface in fields such as architecture, photography, and environmental science.
funfact: Lux is commonly used in everyday life to determine how well-lit a room is, with the recommended illuminance level for general reading being about 300 lux.

How to Convert lumen/square meter to lux
1 lumen/square meter [lm/m^2] = 1 lux [lx]
1 lux [lx] = 1 lumen/square meter [lm/m^2]
we use cross multiplication method
lumen/square meter [lm/m^2] → lux [lx]
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
