Depth Gauge: Depth Gauge: You have to convert between feet and inches or feet and yards, which are US measurements. There are 12 inches in one foot, and three feet in one yard. And there are six feet in one fathom! If your measure is in feet and you want inches, multiply by 12. If it's in inches and you want feet, divide by 12. If it's in feet and you want yards, divide by 3; to change yards to feet, multiply by 3.

Food Storage: You could count the number of blue boxes, but it might be easier to could the number in a row, and the number of rows, and multiply:
3 * 4 = 12   If there are more than one level of boxes, multiply by the number of levels.

Toxicity Level Graph: Look along the bottom of the graph to find the time (in this case, 1000 hours)... go up to the graph line to find the value at that time (in this case 1600). Subtract the value of the Normal line.
In this example, 1600 – 1200 = 400

Capsule Piece Inventory: Use the calculator to add up the total of all five pieces.
