Default Add numbers accross columns after stripping away text

I have the following data in a spreadsheet:



A1 B1 C1 D1 E1 F1
4.5f 6f 3.5f 3f 7.25f


I need to be able to add the numbers together to give me 24.25, i.e. strip
the fs away. The numbers will always be less than 10 and the there will only
ever be .25 or.5 or .75 after the number (I don't know whether that is
significant?).


If anyone can show me how to do this I would be very grateful. I have been
messing around with MID and FIND to no avail and then started thinking that
SUMPRODUCT might have to get involved but it all got a bit much for me!
There may be a perfectly simple solution which I have overlooked!



Regards,




Gavin
