If you have large numbers in inches for the base and height of a square how do you find the area in square feet?
Find the area in square inches and divide by 144. (1 ft2 = 144 in2) Or, convert each side to feet by dividing by 12 (1 ft = 12 in) and then find the area which will be in square feet.
How do you find area of triangle with base 9 feet 3 inches and altitude 5 feet 6 inches?
A:We know that the area of a triangle is (1/2) * base * height. Also, we know that 1 foot = 12 inches.Implies 3 inches = 0.25 feet and 6 inches = 0.5 feet.9 feet 3 inches = 9 feet + 0.25 feet = 9.25 feet5 feet 6 inches = 5 feet + 0.5 feet = 5.5 feetArea = (1/2) * base * height.Given: Base = 9 feet 3 inches = 9.25 feet.Height = 5 feet 6 inches = 5.5 feet.Area = (1/2) * 9.25 * 5.5= (0.5) (9.25) (5.5)= 25.4375 square feet.
How do you find the square feet of an area?
You multiply the two sides the object in order to find the square feet of an area
How many square inches in a bandage that measures 1 inch x 5 yards?
5 yards = 15 feet = 180 inches. To find the area, multiply the length by the width. 180 x 1 = 180 sqare inches.
Find the area of a circle whose radius is 25 inches?
Area = Pi(r)2 - A circle with a radius of 25 inches has an area of 1,963.5 square inches.
A room is 20 feet long, 12 feet wide, and 8 feet high. What is the area of the floor?
To find the area of the floor, you need to multiply the length by the width of the room. Given that the room is 20 feet long and 12 feet wide, you can calculate the area as follows: Area of the floor = Length × Width = 20 feet × 12 feet = 240 square feet Therefore, the area of the floor is 240 square feet.
How many square feet are in a room measuring 16 feet by 23 feet?
The area of the ceiling is 368 square feet. The area of the floor is also 368 square feet. In order to find the area of the walls, we need to know the floor-to-ceiling height of the room.
If you have large numbers in inches for the base and height of a square how do you find the area in square feet?
Find the area in square inches and divide by 144. (1 ft2 = 144 in2) Or, convert each side to feet by dividing by 12 (1 ft = 12 in) and then find the area which will be in square feet.
How many cubic feet in an area 476 feet x 3 inches?
To convert inches to feet, divide the inches by 12. So, 3 inches is equal to 0.25 feet. To find the cubic feet of the area, multiply the length (476 feet) by the width (0.25 feet) and the result will give you the area in cubic feet.
Would you need to use area or volume to find the amount of carpet for your floor?
If your floor is a simple rectangle, you would multiply length times width and get the area. That's how much carpet is needed to cover it. Make sure that you have your measurements converted to just feet when you multiply them. For example, if it is 10 feet, 8 inches long, that would be 10 8/12 feet long. If your floor is not just a simple rectangle, divide a diagram of it up into simple rectangles (or other polygons) that you can find the area of, and then add all of their areas together.
How many square feet are there in a room that measures 15 feet by 19 feet?
15 x 19 = 285 The area of the floor is 285 square feet. The area of the ceiling is another 285 square feet. In order to find the area of the walls, we also need to know the height of the ceiling above the floor.
How do you measure square feet?
Square feet is an imperial measure of area. To measure a floor, or wall to find the area we do the following As these are rectangular we need both the length and the width (floor) or length and height (wall). As most floors and walls are rarely exact numbers of feet we tend to convert the measurements to inches, to make calculations easier If the length of a floor is 12 foot 5 inches and the width is 8 foot 7 inches we convert 12 foot 5 inches to 149 inches and 8 foot 7 inches to 103 inches. Then we multiply these two measurements to get square inches - 149 times 103 = 15,347 square inches. As there are 144 square inches in a square foot (12 inches by 12 inches = 144 square inches) we now divide 15,347 by 144 and get 106.57 square feet. The same process is carried out for any regular rectangular area - multiple the length of one dimension by the length of the other. We could have converted the feet and inches above to feet with decimal representation of the inches. 12 foot 5 inches = 12.41667 feet; 8 foot 7 inches = 8.583; and multiplying those would give the same answer - 12.41667 times 8.583 = 106.57 sq feet. For non-rectangular areas we need to use either triangular or circular geometry - but instances of these are too specific in details to be answered in a general question like this.
How do you find the area of a room in feet and inches?
Take the measurements of two adjoining walls and multiply for the result.
What is the cubic feet of a pallet 40 inches wide x 48 inches long?
There is not enough information to figure the cubic feet of the pallet. The depth would be needed for that. There is enough information to figure the surface area, which is measured in square feet, square inches, etc. To find the area of an object, take the length times the width. 40 inches X 48 inches = 192 square inches or 16 square feet.
