Feet Inch Fraction Calculator

Tapemath is a feet and inches calculator built for the job site: big keys you can hit with work gloves on, answers written the way a tape measure reads, and a paper tape that keeps every calculation. FEET, INCHES AND FRACTIONS – EXACT • Add, subtract, multiply and divide feet, inches and fractions: 5' 7-3/8" + 2' 4-1/2" = 7' 11-7/8". • Exact fraction maths with no decimal drift. 7/8 is 0.875, not 0.82. • Divide a board into equal parts: 12' ÷ 5 = 2' 4-13/16". When an answer is rounded you see an ≈ mark and the exact value (28.8"). • Round to the nearest 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32 or 1/64 inch. • Length × length gives square feet, × depth gives cubic feet, length ÷ length gives a plain number. • Show answers as feet-inches, inches only, decimal feet, decimal inches, mm, cm or m – a calculator for inches that answers in inches when you work in inches. • A tape-measure strip under the answer shows exactly where to mark. METRIC TOO Switch the keypad to m / cm / mm and mix systems in one sum: 1700 mm = 5' 6-15/16". Every trade calculator works in feet-inches or metric. CONSTRUCTION CALCULATOR TOOLS – WITH THE FORMULA SHOWN • Board foot calculator: thickness × width × length ÷ 12 (one board foot is 1" × 12" × 12"). Nominal sizes (2×4) or actual dressed sizes, number of pieces, price per board foot, multi-size lumber orders, cubic feet and cubic metres. A calculator for wood that shows its working, so you can check the order by hand. • Area and volume: rectangle, circle or triangle; square feet, square yards, cubic yards and m². • Stairs: number of risers, riser height, treads, total run, stringer length and angle from the total rise. Flags risers over 7-3/4" and treads under 10" (common IRC limits – always check your local code). • Roof pitch: x/12 ↔ degrees ↔ percent, pitch factor, rafter length with overhang. • Concrete: slab, footing or round column; cubic yards with a waste allowance, ready-mix order and 40, 60 and 80 lb bag counts.
