Given:

1 foot = 12 inches

So, 288 square inches are:

$288\text{ in}^2=288\text{ in}^2*(\frac{1\text{ ft}}{12\text{ in}})^2$

Solve:

$288\text{ in}^2*\frac{1^2\text{ ft}^2}{12^2\text{ in}^2}=288\text{ in}^2*\frac{1\text{ ft}^2}{144\text{ in}^2}$

Simplify:

$2\text{ ft}^2$

Answer: 2 square feet
