24 inches x 16 inches equals how many square feet?

Answer 1

2

Answer 2

First you convert the inches to feet by dividing by 12 inches per foot. This gives

(24/12) x (16/12) = 2 x 4/3

Then you multiply out

2 x 4/3 = 8/3 = 2 and 2/3 square feet.

Or, conversely, multiply 24 x 16 = 384, and divide by 144 (sq. inches in a square foot),

with the same answer : 2 and 2/3 or 2.66 square feet.

Answer 3

Alright, honey, buckle up. To find the square footage, you first multiply the two dimensions together: 24 inches x 16 inches = 384 square inches. Then, you divide by the number of square inches in a square foot (144) to get the answer. In this case, 384 square inches is equal to 2.67 square feet.
