You mean "square meters" of course- you can't measure area in meters any more than you measure it in feet.
1 foot is about .30r8 meters so 1 square foot is about (.3048)2= 0.09290 square meters. Divide 600 square feet by that.
You need the conversion factor for sq. ft. into sq. meters.
1 m. = 39.37 inches = 39.37/12 ft.
1 m2 = (39.37/12)2 ft2
So 1/((39.37/12)2) m2 = 1 ft2
For your problem,
6000 ft2 * 1 m2/(((39.37/12)2) ft2) should give you the area in square meters.
I get about 557.4 m2.
