    Good luck :)

    i havent looked at colleens link but the maths is;4foot*4foot=16sq.ft


    8in =.66 0f a foot so;


    16*.66=10.56 sq.ft.

    Our numbers are close. Yours is square feet as mine is cubic feet. I rounded to 0.40 I think. It's good to have another answer as math was and always has been my worse subject. I tend to miss a step in calculations.
