Default How to convert 6'-3 3/8" to usable numbers

I have a large spredsheet of data that comes in like 6'-3 3/8" that I need to
split out so I have the 6 (feet) in one column and the fractional inches (3
3/8) converted in the next column to 3.375, etc. Below is some sample data:

4'-1 3/8" to 4 | 1.375
9'-2 1/2" to 9 | 2.500
7'-3 1/8" to 7 | 3.125

Any help is greatly appreciated as these are weekly data conversion needs.

Thanks!
