Please provide values below to convert lux [lx] to lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2], or change ↔.
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.
lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2]
Definition: A unit of illuminance, measuring the amount of luminous flux (in lumens) distributed over one square foot of surface area.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the imperial measurement system and was used in the United States before the metric system became more widely adopted.
CurrentUse: It is still used in some industries in the U.S. and is roughly equivalent to 10.764 lux.
funfact: The lumen per square foot is useful for understanding light levels in spaces like offices and schools where the imperial system is still in use.

How to Convert lux to lumen/square foot
1 lux [lx] = 0.09290304 lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2]
1 lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2] = 10.763910417 lux [lx]
we use cross multiplication method
lux [lx] → lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2]
1 → 0.09290304
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.09290304=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.13935456
