You must first draw a floor plan and figure out how the carpet will be laid out. You must then account for waste and seam placement. After laying out the entire job, add up the individual cuts and you will have the total linear feet that needs to be ordered.
Width Of Circle X 3.14 or PII
You cannot have linear square footage because: "linear" means the measurement is 1-dimensional. "square" means the measurement is 2-dimensional. The above two statements are mutually contradictory!
You can't calculate linear footage based on square yardage alone. If you meant square footage it will cover 810 sq. ft..
Measure the length of each wall. Add those figures up and you get Linear footage. Divide the total linear footage by the width of the panels and round up, this is the number of planks you will need.
Weight divided by 3.399, divided by gauge. Divided by width.

To convert square feet to linear feet, you need to know the width of the area you're measuring. Divide the total square footage by the width in feet to get the linear footage. For example, if you have 100 square feet of flooring and the width is 10 feet, you would calculate 100 ÷ 10 = 10 linear feet.
There's no way to calculate that just from square footage.
Multiply the linear feet by 12.
To calculate linear yards for wallpaper, first measure the height and width of each wall you plan to cover. Multiply the height by the width to find the total square footage for each wall, then sum the areas of all walls. Since wallpaper is usually sold in rolls measured in square feet, convert the total square footage to linear yards by dividing the total square footage by 9 (since one linear yard equals 3 feet). Finally, consider the pattern repeat and any waste to determine the total amount of wallpaper needed.
To determine how much caulk you need for sealing bathroom tiles, measure the length of the areas you plan to seal and calculate the total linear footage. One standard tube of caulk typically covers around 10 linear feet, so divide the total linear footage by 10 to determine how many tubes you need.
If you know the length ft.(linear) and you wish to know its area (sq. footage), you must also know the width. Length (ft.) x Width (ft.) equals area or sq. feet. Linear in this case refers to length.
