To convert square meters to square feet, multiply by approximately 10.764. So, $190 \, \text{m}^2 \times 10.764 \, \text{ft}^2/\text{m}^2 = 2045.16 \, \text{ft}^2$, which rounds to 2045, not directly matching any options. However, the closest provided option is 2112 ft², indicating a possible mistake in the calculation or interpretation. The correct calculation should be $190 \times 10.764 = 2045.16$, and rounding to the nearest foot would indeed give a number close to 2045, not 2112. There seems to be a misunderstanding in the explanation or a typo in the options provided.
