How do you determine cu ft for a refrigerator? - Answers

Technically, it's the (length) times the (width) times the (height) ofthe inside compartment, where the refrigerated food resides.The measurements should be in feet. But of course, as you go to make the measurements,none of them is going to be an even number of feet, and you can cause yourself a majorheadache making a measurement in inches, trying to convert it to fractional feet, and thenmultiplying that kind of numbers.So here's an easier way to do it ... not easy, just easier: Make all three measurementsin inches, do the big multiplication all in inches, and then, finally, divide the big resultby 1,728 and you'll have it in cubic feet.
