Conversion derivation

Express both ft³ and m³ in the same base unit m³ (cubic meter), then cancel the shared base unit.

1
Rewrite ft³ in the base unit
$1 f t^{3} = 0.0283168 m^{3}$
2
Rewrite m³ in the base unit
$1 m^{3} = 1 m^{3}$
3
Forward conversion
$1 f t^{3} = \frac{0.0283168 m ^{3}}{1 m ^{3}} \times 1 m^{3} = \frac{0.0283168}{1} m^{3} = 0.0283168 m^{3}$
4
Reverse conversion
$1 m^{3} = \frac{1 m ^{3}}{0.0283168 m ^{3}} \times 1 f t^{3} = \frac{1}{0.0283168} f t^{3} = 35.3147248277 f t^{3}$
