Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.08: 15 × 0.08 ≈ 1.2 ft, against the exact 1.25 ft (4.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A inch is smaller than a foot, so the number of feet must come out smaller than the number of inches. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
