We measured a roof but we don't understand how to find the number squares we need to lay the roof or the number of bundles of shingles. We know 10x10 is a square but after measuring how many square is the problem. The roof measures like this; 125 foot long and 5 foot 3inches wide, the dormer is 7 foot 3 inches on both sides of the dormer wide and 8 foot 4 inches on both sides long. So how would we calculate to find the number of square shingles we would need. Any help would be so helpful... Thank you dumbwife
