I have stored the dimensions as decimal(4,2), does this make a difference?

not a very good way to do it if you ask me but here is how to do the calculation.

SELECT ((FLOOR(X) + ((X - FLOOR(X))/0.12)) * (FLOOR(Y) + ((Y - FLOOR(Y))/0.12))) as SqFt.

FLOOR(X) gives you 6 from the 6.11
X - FLOOR(X) gives you the .11 part
.11/.12 gives you the appropriate fraction of a foot.to add back to X then the same thing for Y and multiply.
