Step 3 · Calculate the Number of Risers

Divide the total rise (from Step 1) by your chosen ideal riser height (from Step 2). Round the result to the nearest whole number. This will be your number of risers. For instance, if your total rise is 100 inches and you aim for a 7-inch riser height, 100 / 7 = 14.28, which rounds to 14 risers.
