Question 963845: I'm making a calendar. My paper is 10.5 inches wide and 7 inches long. How big do I make each box/date?
I know they will be 1 inch long I just can't figure out how wide. I know it should be a little more than 1.25 inches but less than 1.5 inches.
Thank you for your help.

Paper size is +10.5+ in wide x +7+ in long
My calendar is 7 boxes wide and 5 boxes long
+7%2A5+=+35+ which is enough for the +31+
maximum days/month
+10.5%2F7+=+1.5+ inches for width of each box
+7%2F5+=+1.4+ inches for the length of each box
