Example
Suppose you want to make 3 flags that are 48 inches wide and 30 inches tall. The fabric costs $10 per square foot.
- Width = 48 inches
- Height = 30 inches
- Cost per Sq Ft = $10
- Quantity = 3
The calculator will display:
- Area = (48 * 30) / 144 = 10 sq ft per flag
- Cost per Flag = 10 sq ft * $10 = $100
- Total Cost = $100 * 3 = $300
- Perimeter = 2 * (48 + 30) = 156 inches
