What is a linear inch?

A linear inch is a unit of measurement that represents one inch in length in a straight line. It is commonly used to measure the dimensions of objects such as paper, fabric, or small items.

One linear inch is equivalent to 2.54 centimeters.

Linear inches are often used in shipping and packaging to determine the size and cost of a package based on its dimensions.

To calculate the linear inches of an object, simply add together the length, width, and height of the object in inches.

For example, an object that is 10 inches long, 5 inches wide, and 3 inches high would have a total of 18 linear inches (10 + 5 + 3 = 18).
