It is impossible to convert the measure of weight (mass) to the measure of length (distance). Forget the not necessary word "linear".

Linear feet is a unit of length, and pounds is a unit of weight. The two units measure different things and cannot be directly converted from one to the other.
A linear foot is a unit of length. A pound is a unit of mass. The two units are therefore incompatible.
To convert board feet to lineal feet, divide the total board feet by the board's thickness in feet. For example, if you have 100 board feet of lumber that is 1 inch thick, you would divide 100 by 1, which equals 100 lineal feet.
To convert pounds to cubic feet for shipping, you need to know the density of the material being shipped. Divide the weight in pounds by the density to get the volume in cubic feet. For example, to convert 100 pounds of material with a density of 50 lbs/ft³, you would divide 100 by 50, resulting in 2 cubic feet.
A conversion from pounds per square feet (psf) to pounds per linear feet plf is necessary to design, for example, a beam.---Take a 15 foot floor beam for example: live load plus dead load is say, 100 psf. lets say this beam's tributary area is 8 ft (meaning it supports all loads 4ft on either side).-now the math : 8ft X 15ft = 120 square feet. Now 120 sf X 100 psf = 12,000 pounds. this means the beam carries 12,000# divide by 15 ft and you have 800 pounds per linear ft or 800 plf.Basically find total Weight then devide by the Length.-Mike Z
One acre foot is equal to 43,560 cubic feet, so to convert to 100 cubic feet you would divide by 43,560 to get approximately 0.0023 acre feet.
To convert cubic feet to brass, you would need to divide the volume in cubic feet by 100. This is because 1 brass is equal to 100 cubic feet. So, the formula would be: Brass = Cubic Feet / 100.
