How to Convert Feet to Inches?

Feet to Inches Formula

1 foot is equal to 12 inches:

1 ft = 12″

The measurement represented by ‘d’ in inches (″) can be equated to the measurement denoted by ‘d’ in feet (ft) multiplied by a factor of 12:

d_(″) = d_(ft) * 12

Examples

Example 1:

Consider a common household scenario where you need to convert feet to inches in the realm of electricity. Imagine you have a spool of electrical wire that measures 50 feet in length. To determine its length in inches, apply the conversion factor: 1 foot equals 12 inches. Thus, the wire’s length in inches would be calculated as follows:

d_(″) = d_(ft) * 12 = 50 feet × 12 inches/foot = 600 inches

Example 2:

In the context of electrical conduit installations, another instance arises where feet-to-inches conversion is indispensable. Let’s say you are designing a conduit path for wiring that spans 100 feet. To translate this length into inches, employ the conversion rate: 1 foot equals 12 inches. Thus, the converted length in inches can be computed as follows:

d_(″) = d_(ft) * 12 = 100 feet × 12 inches/foot = 1200 inches

This meticulous conversion guarantees precise conduit sizing and effective organization of electrical systems, mitigating the risk of errors during installation and maintenance activities.
