Depending on your specific needs, its worth mentioning the outerWidth() function. As it will return the width of the element, along with left and right padding, border, and optionally margin, in pixels.

for more specific dimensions see the dimension-functions in the jQuery manual

.outerWidth() and .outerWidth(true) are usefull in particular for elements with margins and borders

You'll want to use the width function:

var articles = $('#showroom ul').width() / 245;

jQuery width() function.
