Answer:

Hi there!

You'll need 860.67 feet of lumber.

Explanation:

First we calculate the needs of lumber in inches

Shelves: 2 x 1,134 = 2,268 inches

Base Sides: 2 x 1,112 = 2,224 inches

Door stiles: 2 x 2,918 = 5,836 inches

Total inches long of lumber needed:

2,268 + 2,224 + 5,836 = 10,328 inches

Then we convert the unit of measure from inches to feet:

One inch equals 0.08333 feet.

10,328 x 0.08333 = 860.67 feet
