    Double the 29” (so there will be 29” on both ends/sides) and add that to the length and width (138”x104”).

    Double the drop (92”) then add the table size (20”) to ensure it goes to all the way. Therefore you would need a cloth 112” in diameter.

    You would generally want a 12" drop all round so as not to hit the chairs or to sit in people's laps when dining. Hence the following math 12" drop x 2 (both sides) = 24" + 36" (width) = 60" Round Tablecloth. So to re-iterate Drop x 2 = ? + Width = size.
