what is the formula of converting inches into square feet?
35 in 78in = sqft?
----------------
Not inches to sq ft, sq inches to sq ft
----
1 ft = 12 inches
1 sq ft = 12 in * 12 in = 144 sq inches
------------
35*78 = 2730 sq in
= 2730/144 sq ft
=~ 18.958 sq ft
==================
Much easier than the metric system, right?
