Hi! Haha, who measure this building?!?!? Now there are several ways to do this, and you can choose whichever one seems easiest.

1. Multiply them all together, then do unit conversions.
2. Do unit conversions on each, then multiply them all.
3. Do unit conversions AND multiply them as you go through them (that sounds the most annoying).

Up to you - you pick.

Did you get 53498287.456666666666666666666667, or $5.35\times 10^7$ with sig figs? I think you just round normally...

Forr the first part, I mean.

theeric · Answer

Ah! I make calculation mistakes. I'll recheck myself.

theeric · Answer

Yep! My bad! But now I got
44742871.646341463414634146341463.

Maybe just a conversion or something I did wrong.

Got 481484587.11 this time... Ah well, they're close. It might depends on the accuracy of the meter-to-foot conversion.
