Convert Decimal Feet To Feet And Inches
May 18, 2011
I am currently working on cut sheets for my current project. I need to take my decimal feet (ie 1.55) and display them as feet and inches (1' 6 5/8") not (1' 6 3/5")
I have a formula which is this
=INT(F17)&"' "&TEXT(12*(F17-INT(F17)),"# #/#")&CHAR(34),
It works but the problem is the fractional inches 6 3/5" i need them to display in 1/8 1/4 1/2 when applicable. Is there something i could add to this formula to make my inches read like a measuring tape (1' 6 5/8") 1/8 1/4 1/2??? I attached the spreedsheet for review.

I am working in excel 2003 and I need to convert feet and inches into decimal feet. Example: 15'-10 5/8" to 15.88542
15'-10 5/8" will be in say, column B, and the conversion will be in say, column Q.
This formula will be copied all the way down the page.
how to do this or can it even be done in this version?

I need a formula to convert:
3.759 to 3' 9"
3.974 to 4'
4.005 to 4'
I have this currently:
=INT(D9)&"' "&ROUND(TEXT((D9-INT(D9))*12,"#"),0)&CHAR(34)
However, 3.974 returns 3' 12" and 4.005 returns a #VALUE error. I'm picky about the spaces. I'd like it formatted as I have it now.

I am new to Excel but not programming and I am looking for a recommendation for the following. I have a spreadsheet that simply takes the length and width of an area and computes the square feet and yardage and other sundry items. I am entering the feet/inches as follows:
Example: 11.3 (equals 11/ft 3/inches)
The correct decimal conversion should be 11.25 but, obviously, it does not know that the number to the right of the decimal point is an indicator of inches. (ex.: .5=.42, .7=.58, .9=.75, .11=.92)
I have approached this from the stand point of an IF condition, finding the position of the "." and grabbing everything to the right (+1) but I understand that the limitation is 7 nested IFs.
Can someone get me kick-started on what the best approach would be to get my entry to convert to the true decimal equivalent? Currently, I am simply doing the conversion from memory but I would rather automate this sometimes errant approach.

This is a continuance of the Q and A below. Except the answer below converted a decimal like 1.44 to and answer like 1' 5.28".
except the final format I am after requires the 5.28" to be fractional such as:
1' - 5 1/4"
Is there a formula for this format?

I have to make a excel document in which I have length and width in feet and inch format.
E.g. 10.01 in which 10 is feet and .01 is inch
I have all the length and width values in the above format. And what I want to do is convert the inch value (10.01) to feet value (.01=.08 feet) .
Just like the calculator here does.. [URL] ........
Like
10.01=10.08
10.02=10.16
10..03=10.25
...and so on...
Here is table of conversions from inches to decimal feet. But I don't know how to get a formula for this in excel...????
Inch Decimal of a Foot
1 inch 0.0833
2 inches 0.167
3 inches 0.250
4 inches 0.333
5 inches 0.417
6 inches 0.500
7 inches 0.583
8 inches 0.667
9 inches 0.750

I need to convert inches to feet and inches in this format:
88 1/2 = 7' 4-1/2"
...so that if 88 1/2 is in cell A1, cell B1 will show 7' 4-1/2".
The exact syntax of B1 must be as shown.

I am making an excel spreadsheet that auto fills in a lot of items for a construction company. One of the most important ones is the Roof Pitch.
1/12 pitch is 1 inch rise every 12 inches.
2/12 pitch is 2 inch rise every 12 inches.
I would like it to auto calculate this and add it to the over all height of the building.
Example:
A house is 20 feet wide with a 2/12 pitch.
Since the Ridge is in the center we divide the Width in half.
So a 2/12 pitch over a span of 10 feet is 20 inches

I am creating a spreadsheet for some deliveries. The pieces I have are all in feet and inches and multiplied by a certain quantity. I need a formula to run this and give me feet as an answer.
I have 4 cells, in A1 I have feet without the foot mark (20) and in cell B1 I have inches without the " (5). In cell C1 I have 20. How do I write a formula to do the following:
20'-5" multiplied by 20 = Answer in D1 408'

I often use feet and inch inputs for calulations. I prefer to input a typical feet & inch input into one cell using this format: ft-n.
example: 12ft 9in would input as 12-9
This would need to be converted into a decimal for calcualtions. Also I would like to convert from Decimal back to ft-in.

I have 6 rows A1-A6(sheetsize), they can be 1 of 8 numbers. (16,14,12,10, 5/8, 1/2, 3/8, 3/16) these are all metal gauges. The cell next to them B1-B6(sheetgauge) has a number that refers to how much sq ft each of these sheet metal sizes has. I would like a cell below A30 to add up all the sq ft in B1-B6 if it is 16 gauge. Then A31 will add up all the 14 gauge, etc.
How is this possible without having a huge formula.
Here is my standard formula, but it wont add the B cells together if more than one of the same sheet sizes.
=index(sheetsize,match(A31,sheetgauge,0))

I need a formula to automatically convert inches to square feet. I have =IF(G5>12,G5/144). and G5 is the cell used to enter your inch value. The formula wrks great, but only if you enter over 12 inches. I'm pretty sure Im on the right track, just need to know how to add in the part about if its less than 12 inches it should be multiplied by 12.

I am trying to create a unique sample code by putting together the values of other cells that a user will input. It's all working well apart from the last part, where I am trying to include a decimal number. I want the decimal number to appear without the central "." and in a four digit format. e.g. 2.5 would appear as 0250, 14.25 would appear as 1425. This is the formlua I am using currently:
=IF(ISBLANK(B4),"",IF(LEFT(C4,1)="w",(B4&"-"&TEXT(F4,"YYMMDD")&C4&TEXT(G4,"HHMM")),(B4&"-"&TEXT(F4,"YYMMDD")&C4&LEFT(TEXT(H4,"00"),2)&RIGHT(TEXT(H4,"00"),2))))
However, where the value of H4 is 2.5, I am getting a result of 0303 (I've put this part in bold). I have attached a small spreadsheet to aid understanding.

I'm trying to find out how many 40 hour shifts we had in a week by dividing the total seconds staffed (2989957) by total seconds in a week (144000) to get a 2 digit decimal result. I have a field formatted as [s] that I need to convert to decimal but when I do a calculation using that field it comes out as [s}.
Cell A1: 2989957 formatted as [s]
Cell B2: =A1/144000 formatted as number with 2 decimals
Result shows 0.00
If I use that calculation in a cell with a general format, I get 21 and it reverts to [s] format.

I need to convert the fraction at the beginning of a cells text into the decimal equivelent. for example 1/4-20 3A would give .2500. I have this formula so far that works perfect for fractions that only contain 1 number on each side of the division sign such as 1/2.

Is there a method to automatically convert a decimal to a percentage?
For example:
if given the value of 76.48, is it possible to automatically convert this to 76.48%? Formatting the cell as a percentage produces 7648%. I've tried everything I know and can't get the right result.

I need a formula to take the numbers listed in cells D4:D50
If below 1,000,000 than just keep that number value
EXAMPLE DATA
If the Ten Thousands place is 5 or below leave the same if it is higher round up. (use this concept for ALL PLACE VALUES
1,500,000 to 1.5 million (if the rest are zeros)
4,000,000 to 4 million
1,564,535 than to 1.57 million
1,545,535 than to 1.54 million
1,555,000 than to 1.55 million
Same concept for the rest as the Millions (move the rounded place up as needed)
So for Billions it would be 10 Millions place (to round form) I think lol
1,000,000,000 to 1 Billion
1,500,000,000 to 1.5 Billion
1,560,000,000 to 1.57 Billion
1,578,000,000 to 1.58 Billion
1,700,000,000 to 1.7 Billion
I would like this to continue all the way up to place value 999 QUADILLION! (if possible) if the value can go bigger that would be great!

This code is exactly what i was looking for but have the need for it to be able to give the result as a number of bits eg. i would like the result to be dispalyed as 13 bits. I have tried modifying the code without any success and would like to be able to use it in this form. Public Function Dec2Base( Num As Long, base As Long, length as long) As String

I got following Hex data in text format, I need change them to decimal,
0324 00BF 0000 0000 030C 00C6 0000 0000
0305 00C7 0000 0000 02FE 300F 040B 4753
4D4D 5352 4E4D 5343 4E31 0030 0F0A 0101
firstly I did txt to columns, then I found some data changed to scientific format which is not I wanted as I could not convert it using function HEX2DEC.
032400BF00000000030C00C600000000
030500C70000000002FE300F040B4753
4D4D53524E4D53434.00E+3100300F0A0101
if I set column data format to text when I doing Text to Columns operation then all data will be text, so I still can not convert them to decimal.
