    You would usually get three drops per roll. (i believe each roll is 32 feet)

    Can you work it out from that.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    How wide is your paper? And can you do it all in metric - or imperial if you really must? Because you are asking for a mistake if you work in mixed units.

    allow 3 drops per roll , and each roll is around 20inches wide , just measure the number of drops , without seeing it 11ft=132ins , approx 60ins width per roll, so 3 rolls will give you 180ins which should be more than enough
