A surveyors 100' steel tape expands and contracts because of heat and cold temperature. So he has it calibrated at 68F. The surveyors chain has a temperature coefficient of .00000645.

What measurement correction does the surveyor need to make on a 12F day to precisely measure 100' with his calibrated tape?

What correction on a 98F day to measure 100'?

All US survey foot. No SI units.
