Measure the length of each section in feet
Add all section lengths together
Use the total as the linear feet
If measurements are in inches, divide by 12 to convert to feet
If measurements are in yards, multiply by 3 to convert to feet
If measuring multiple sides, add each side length separately
For irregular shapes, measure each straight segment and add them
For one continuous run, use the full end-to-end length
For repeated items, multiply the item length by the quantity
Round to the nearest desired fraction if needed
