1. Be sure to enter your data as decimal numbers. To convert fractions to decimals, divide the numerator by the denominator.
2. Change all measurements to feet.
- linear inch measures divided by 12 = feet
- measures like 12'4' would become 12 and 4/12 feet - change the fraction part to a decimal.
- area measures are different from linear measures. Do not use the same procedures.
