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 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 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.
Question.xlsx‎
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 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
Is there a way to convert a value in a cell that is 2'-3 1/2" to adecimal such as 27.5"?

Is there a way to store a text style that will allow me to convert decimal numbers into feet and inches in the same cell?
I want to be able to type in a number like 3.5 and have it read 3'-6".
I need help shrinking down my formula to make it fit in one cell.
Right now, the way i have it, it spans across (7) different cells to get the results i desire. Is there a way i can make this shorter?
A11 – This is where the decimal value of a number is inputted.
B11 – This is the final display after running A11 through the formulas below
Here are my formulas: ...
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
10 inches 0.833
11 inches 0.917
12 inches 1.000
I have a spreadsheet with 4 columns.
A, B, C, D
I want to multiply A*B and then add that to C*D
=SUM(A*B)+(C*D)=TOTAL
However, when I dont have a value/number in A or C I get a #VALUE in the total cell. It will only calculate properly when I have numbers in all 4 cells.
Is there a way to set it up so it will calculate if cells A or C are empty? I dont want to have a zero in these cells - just leave empty if no value.
Also - when the total cell is empty I want it blank.
How, using PageSetup and xlPaperSize properties, to setup a custom paper size of 4 inches by 6 inches???
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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 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.
Could someone please tell me what is wrong with this formula. I have been looking at it for so long, I can't even concentrate .....
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am working on a simple calculater, what I want to do is figure sq. inches my problem is every thing I try the decimals won't calculate right,, this is a example of what I want to do
8.25x10.75= 81 sq"
I have a drop down list with 'Weekly', '4 Weekly' or 'Monthly' as the selectable values.
I want the cell below to calculate a number in an adjacent cell with either 52 for weekly, 13 for four weekly or 12 for monthly.
I.e 100 and weekly would display = 5200 ( 100 x 52 )
100 and monthly would be 1200 = ( 100x12 )
I have been trying to multiply cells(6,3) of sheet 'Input2' with the 23rd row of next sheet 'Input' from 4th column in that row to last used column. Then I want this looping to go from 23rd row to the last used row in that sheet. But I am not successful. The code that I tried till now is:
Sub test()
Sheets("Input").Activate
x = Range("D23").End(xlToRight).Select
For j = 4 To x
m = Sheets("Input2").Cells(6, 3) * Sheets("Input").Cells(23, j)
Sheets("worksheet").Activate
Sheets("worksheet").Cells(j, 17) = m
Next j
End Sub
well in one of my excel reports, i am using a dsum formula and plotting a chart against it. i do not want to show the zeros on the graph, is there anyway i can do that, i could not find anything in the tools -> options.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a total number of hours I want to subtract from. Example in cell e3 I will have 800 hours. In cell f3 I have the number 2 (to represent 2 workers at 40 hours, so that should total 80). I then want f3 to multiply by 40, then that total subtract from the 800 hours in cell e3. Basically I want to be able to put 2 workers in a cell, have that multiply by 40 and minus from the 800 hours in cell e3. I want that to carry on for cell g3, etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedBasically I have 1 value on 1 sheet and and multiple values on another sheet and I would like to know if it is possoible to mutliply these togther i.e
Sheet 1
100
Sheet 2
2,5,9,15,20....
I would like to calculate (100*2)+(100*5)+(100*9)+(100*15)+(100*20).....
I know if sheet 2 only had a few numbers like above which I have used as an example I could link the sheets; however in my data, sheet 2 is about 75 numbers that change.
I have these two formulas I am trying to multiply
=ROUNDDOWN(AK170/Sheet1!B3,0) Returns a value of 2
=ROUNDDOWN(AL170/Sheet1!C3,0) Returns a value of 7
I need to multiply these 2 formulas together to return a value of 14
This is about my misformatted download again. It considers all the numbers to be text. Naturally, I need them to be numbers. I discovered a page on the Web that says if you multiply all the numbers by 1, suddenly Excel gets a clue and figures out they are numbers. I've tried this (as the page recommended) by using Paste Special, and it works. I know the command I need to use to get it to Paste Special:
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have tried to put together three simple formulas for a very simple problem. I wanted to string together three vlookup formulas which were as follows;
=vlookup(F4,prices,6)+vlookup(D4,floorpremiums,2)+vlookup(G4,aspectpremiums,2)
The first lookup would work but as soon as I added another it would result in #n/a. I tried adding the suffix "false" after column no. but that did not work.
On the second lookup I did mix text and numbers e.g the first row in the column had a "G" in it and the rest were numbered 1-10. The second two vlookups were on a seperate sheet but in the same workbook.
I have checked the named ranges and they work fine when done individually but it seems to be the combining which messes things up.
I need to multiply the values of 10 rows by the values in 10 columns and sum then, akin to the sumproduct function, which only seems to work if the values are all in rows or all in columns.
In other words;
rows of 1 2 3.......10 & columns of
a
b
c
.
.
j
Expressed as (1*a) + (2*b) + (3*c) + ....... (10*j)
I can do it long hand and I can do it by transposing the data as an intermediate step, but I was looking to do it all in one formula.
I have a table set up that calculates feet and inches. My problem is that if I have an answer like 2'-0 3/8", it suppresses the zero. I tried setting the format up like ##"'" ##"''" ?/? with no luck.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.
