Interesting question. At first glance, it appears that 4.46 is very close to 4.50, as the difference is only 0.04. Most rulers have the smallest division as 1/16 which is equal to 0.0625. Since 4.46 is less than 4.50, the question then is 4.46 less than the next lower division 4 7/16. I can quickly say that it is not because I know 4.46 is only 0.04" away from 4.5. As a check, I can quickly calculate 4 7/16 to be 4.5-0.0625 = 4.4375. So 4.46 is between the 4.5 division and the 4 7/16" divisions on your ruler. The divisions on a ruler are easy to convert to decimals so long as you remember 0.50 = 1/2 and 0.25 = 1/4. For the others ( 0.125 = 1/8 and 0.0625 = 1/16) if you forget use a calculator. I do!

How do you find the area of a storage box with the sides 6.3 inches 12.6 inches and 4.2 inches and turn it into square inches?
Do you mean the surface area of the box? If so... What you do is break the surface area into 6 rectangles: Two rectangles have sides of length 6.3 and 12.6 inches. Two rectangles have sides of length 6.3 and 4.2 inches. Two rectangles have sides of length 12.6 and 4.2 inches. Find the area of each of the six rectangles (using the standard formula for the area of a rectangle, A = W x H), and add up all six. The sum of the areas of the six rectangles will be the surface area of the box. Since the lengths of the sides are in inches, the area will already be in square inches, and therefore you don't have to "turn it into square inches".
